W: Hey, Sean! Want to join me for lunch? My treat!
M: Wow! Sure!
W: I must confess I have a motive for asking you to lunch.
M: Oh, that’s OK, as long as you’re buying!
W: I really want to pick your brain about something I’ve been thinking a lot about.
M: I’d love to help if I can.
W: Well, as you know,(1)I have a bachelor’s degree in English literature and that’s served me well so far, but I’ve always wanted to do some postgraduate work. Maybe even get a doctorate!
M: Wow! Just the idea of going back to school fills my head with pain.
W: But you have a master’s degree. Hasn’t that helped your career?
M: Yeah, I’d have to say it has. But I’m still paying for it, you know.
W: I know education is expensive, but it’s been my lifelong dream. Call me crazy, but I’ve always wanted to have that PhD at the end of my name.
M: (2)Well, getting a doctorate degree would mean close to a decade of school. Can you afford that? Can you survive that?
W: I certainly can’t afford it, but I’m sure I could find some good student loans.
M: I think you need to separate the dream of having a PhD from the reality of years of more schooling. It’s not as romantic as you might think.
W: Yeah...I keep thinking about what I’ll do with a master’s or doctorate.(3) I love language but I don’t think there are a lot of well-paying jobs out there for experts on Shakespeare.
M: Uh huh, that’s for sure. You might find that your only career choice is teaching other graduate students.
W: So you’re counseling me against this idea?
M: Not necessarily, but I do recommend taking a slow approach.(4 - 1)Can you take some night classes or find some way to keep working while you go back to school?
W: It might be difficult.
M: (4-2)Maybe you could get an MBA or something more marketable.
W: That’s worth considering. Or maybe I should just take some courses that I’m interested in, but skip the master’s.
M: That’s another idea, but if you really have a dream, don’t let anything stop you from going for it! Going back to school is hard, but it’s not impossible.
W: You’re right! I need to decide if this is truly what I want.
M: And take your time. You’re still young.(4 - 3)Maybe there’s even a correspondence course you can take during your free time.
W: Yeah!(5)Then I could slowly build up credits and maybe later transfer into a university program.
M: There you go! That’s some clear thinking.
W: Thanks a lot for your advice!
