I believe we need to combine some of this stuff into similar types of articles.  I think longer articles that answer several questions would be useful.  Here is one idea for mapping the current content into something new.
 
  
[[Life as a Doctoral Student]]
 
 
[[Life as a Professor]]
 
 
[[Applying to a Ph.D. Program]]
 
 
[[Preparing for a Doctoral Program]]
 
 
[[What is Accounting Research?]]
 
 
 
* Create one article on [[Applying to a Ph.D. Program]].  None of the articles below seem like they should stand on their own.  Include the following information on that single page (under different headings):
 
** [[What Ph.D. program should I attend?]]
 
** [[What should I expect when I visit a campus?]]
 
** [[How do I get into a research intensive PhD program?]]
 
** [[The Application Process]]
 
 
* An article on [[Life as a Professor]].  This would merge these articles together:
 
** [[What is life like as an accounting professor?]]
 
** [[How much do accounting professors make?]]
 
** [[What is accounting research?]]
 
 
 
* An article on what is life like as a Ph.D. student.  Here's the initial attempt: [[Life as a Doctoral Student]]. This would merge these articles together:
 
** [[What is life like as a doctoral student?]]
 
** [[How do you succeed in a Ph.D. program?]]
 
** [[How do I prepare for comprehensive exams?]]
 
 
* An article about preparation before going into a Ph.D. program--[[Preparing for a Doctoral Program]]:
 
** [[Should I get a Ph.D. in a subject area other than accounting?]]
 
** [[Why I didn't get a Ph.D.]]
 
** [[Should I work in industry before getting a Ph.D.?]]
 
** [[Should I find a teaching opportunity before my Ph.D. program?]]
 
** [[Where can I find teaching opportunities?]]
 
** [http://www-rcf.usc.edu/~amarino/prin.htm Mathematics Review for Doctoral Students]
 
** [http://academicearth.org Free Lectures in Mathematics]
 
** [[The CPA Exam|Should I take the CPA exam before entering a doctoral program?]]
 
** [[GMAT Suggestions|How should I prepare for the GMAT?]]
 
 
 
* An article Specifically for Prep Students:
 
** [[What will I learn in the Prep Track that I won't learn elsewhere?]] (Should I do the prep track...type part of article)
 
** [[What classes should I take?]]
 
** [[Am I cutting off options by deciding to do the Prep Track?]]
 
** [[The CPA Exam|Should I take the CPA exam before entering a doctoral program?]]
 
 
This reduces the article count to 5 different articles and goes into more depth on each one rather than sort of a hodge-podge on all things.  Thoughts? [[User:Daw44|Daw44]] 21:01, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
