I’m finishing up my undergrad in public health, I’m just wondering if it’s still worth it to do an mph especially with the way things are looking? There’s an mph + mba dual program that I’m considering applying to if mph seems like a reasonable option. Or should I do grad school in something completely different? I’m really not sure which route to go, I would love some advice and new perspectives.
I’ve never been one to care about the traditions or whatever. But honestly i genuinely feel like I’m missing out on a lot of things especially cuz im going to finish after the fall semester. It feels so weird to see all my friends post their grad pics on insta and im really proud of them, I just wish i got to as well and a lot of people are just like just take them but it doesn’t really hit the same. It took a lot of effort to talk about it to my parents last semester and breaking it to them about changing my major and taking an extra sem but it passed and now they’re okay. But now my cousins or other people don’t make it any better when they ask me “aren’t you graduating this month?” It genuinely makes me disappointed in myself a bit (just a teeny tiny bit) but im really proud of how far I’ve come along. From 2 academic probations to switching my major and getting on the deans list. And from being depressed to now being okay/happy. I know it’s okay but I kinda wish I got to attend the ceremony and graduation on time as well.
