Surkhi: Master’s Degree or Waste of Time? A Bitter Truth
Getting a master's is not wrong, but spending 3 years is truly not a wise decision. I made the same mistake. After 9 months of hard work, I passed the exam; the first year was spent on research and fun, and the last one and a half years just on internships. The biggest foolishness happened when the work during the internship was more than that of a full-time employee, but due to not having a diploma, I only received a salary of 3000. If your goal is a job, don’t waste 3 years; a 1-year program is excellent.

Surkhi: My Life's Biggest "Economic Loss": 3-Year Master's Program
I thought a master's degree was very "impressive," but the reality was different. I interned for 15 months at a top institute in Shenzhen, worked the most, but kept receiving only a base salary while waiting for the diploma. The situation was such that I had to manage by working part-time in crypto. I would advise everyone: if you want a job, don’t get stuck in a long 3-year program. Value your time, not the degree.
Option 3: Short & Punchy (Social Media Advice)
🚨 Career Advice: 3 Year Master's Is A Trap! 🛑
Mistake: Wasting 3 years chasing an impressive degree.
Reality: Classes are only in the first year, the rest of the time is just waiting for the diploma.
Loss: Despite working full-time for 15 months, receiving only "intern" salary because I didn't have the diploma in hand.
Bottom Line: If you need a job, choose the shortest possible master's (1 year). Spending 3 years is a loss financially and career-wise.
