It's just hit me. I have been watching your channel from the very beginning. It felt like I've been watching you since "forever" ago. You and your channel have been some of my main inspiration for going into mathematics as an undergraduate. I'm currently a second year and just finished out my semester. I just want to thank you because you have greatly helped me find and pursue one of my great purposes in life. Thank you! P.s. New channel name should be "Struggling Postdoc"
I'm a struggling Master's student and I feel so similar even if it's not remotely close to a PhD. You got this man! Hoping for the best for both of us.
I'm rooting for you! I just learned that the Physics PhD programs in my state got rid of the GRE exams, which was something I always struggled with, so now I'm feeling like I can plan to go to grad school in 2026.
1.5 years to write a PhD thesis seems like a really short amount of time to me. Here in Australia, we do 3 years of undergrad and 2 years of Masters. Then we do 3.5 years of PhD (no classes) - although I wish the stipend was for 4 years.
That Harvard notebook is sick! I really recommend the intro to functional analysis course on MIT ocw. It has all the lectures recorded, the notes and the assignments, although it may be elementary for you -- I have really enjoyed it.
MIT OCW is an awesome resource I’ve used to self study undergraduate courses before I took them! I’ve been watching you for a long time now and hope you succeed, glad to see the progression of you starting to believe in yourself.
It wouldn’t give me much pleasure to wear stuff of a university that’s not alma mater. People usually assume one studied there and wouldn’t want to just promote for them, either. I wish you well in your program!
Hey let me know if you want some advice. Unfortunately if you’re talking about completing your dissertation, “traditional classes” needs to be a thing of the past. After passing to candidacy, you should be taking almost all research credits and maybe a seminar, but working on research almost 100% of the time. You talk a lot about classes which normally is a bad sign but I think you understand what research constitutes.
You started 2023? You’re planning on graduating in 3.5 years? Isn’t that a pretty crazy timeline a PhD? In my program you’re expected to have like 3-5 papers by the time you graduate. 6 y’s on average.

Still take it, especially if your school isn’t well-known. It gives a more “objective” measure if you don’t go somewhere like U of M.

You inspired me to switch my major from engineering to mathematics and my goal is to do a PhD like you. Rooting for you out here!
The point about wanting to start research sooner after passing exams pulled on my heart strings

I am glad that you mentioned the MIT open courseware. By means of that, you can watch Gilbert Strang's linear algebra lessons.
MIT OCW 18.085 and 18.086 are courses I watched (but still havent finished them all)
Conheci o seu canal hoje e já achei ele incrível, estou torcendo por você!

For a moment there, I thought you were about to announce that you will go to harvard for a postdoc or sth
"Struggling researcher"
@14:50 I have a MIT sweatshirt since I was 16! I pretend about going to those schools too man!
I'm rooting for you man ✊🏾
Qué bien! Suerte con tus lecciones de español! Justo estaba usando Duolingo mientras miraba el video. Adiós.
I really like that harvard hat. The cream and crimson really works well together.
I need to hear about the Precalc class you *didn't* enjoy teaching
you got this bro 💪 what job are you eyeing? industry? research postdoc?
Just finished my first semester of PhD in CS
Godspeed
Damn I haven't seen one of your videos in a year. Hope you're doing well.

He started a year and a half before that. So half way through 2021.
He just started posting vids on UA-cam in 2023 :)
@ my bad I misheard him say he only has a year and a half to do all his PhD research. When it usually takes like 3 in the US.
You won’t try to get into academia?
It's time to start collaborating with the Math Sorcerer on UA-cam.
He’s garbage
@@bennoarchimboldi6245 Why say that?
Spring 2026? you still have a lot of time
You got accepted to both howwwwwwwe 😯😯😵💫🫨🫨🫨
