Hello. I was a graduate student about a year ago at a very good math program. I couldn't pass my last qualifying exam (out of 3) in the program, so I decided to stop and go into the industry. During the day I work full time and at nights I go and teach at a local community college. I love the teaching, and I miss the research. Lately, I've been thinking much to go back and finish my Ph.D. Perhaps trying one more time at the qualifier or to transfer some where and finish it there. However, I don't know if I am strong enough to finish it up? I've passed pretty difficult quals at the institute, but the last qual kept me hanging...
So I was wondering if there's anyone out there that has been hung up by the quals, and if they've ever left the program and then gone back in later on in their life. If you could share your experience that would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks much.
