I am wondering. Is jealously an issue in programs? Or hostility towards another? I am a first year student and have recently gotten an office with my adviser (no one else has one) plus may be defending my specialty paper next semester. Typically in my program you have to have meet requirements (e.g. completed psych core, 2 years practicum, etc) before you defend but my advisor is pushing it through.
I kind of feel like others in my cohort are jealous and are a little hostile because of my situation. Is it just me or is this common? I am pretty forward and have no problem applying myself 24/7 to achieve, some of my cohort are still transitioning.
Does anyone have feedback, experience with this experience? I hate to think people are just "jealous" that I have my dissertation set just in my first year (especially being a mom of 2) and they have no idea yet.
