please help me out! military service? or ph.d in local univ?
hello~ i just started my Masters in Physics.
and i have a problem.
AS A VICTIM OF Kim Jong-il(i live in S.Korea lol), i got to do my military service.
And I can think of only 2 options for now
1. keep studying here and finish my Ph.D. in Korea
(6yrs of domestic ph.d as a substitue for Military service)
and then do postdoc abroad.
2. finish MA only and do military service for 3yrs(maybe i can study at night)
and do ph.d abroad.
which is the best choice?
Am i just being chicken who tries to rely on school fame?
Or is it worth taking more time to do Ph.D. with better advisor?
my advisor(37) has a PRL paper cited about 80
and have one or two publication on science magazine.
Please help me out and criticize me.
