I'm so sad, all the 2nd yr was kicked out

3 guys are all kicked out with a master in finance.

Although I marginally passed, I'm really worried about my future

I just talked with one of the committe member, he told me that, since their requirement is to have their coauthor for the lifetime, they are pretty tough on them. They want the ph.d student have a good placement. I don't think it is funding's problem. Anyway, I  am stressed.

At least your school gave those guys a M.S. in finance. Some guy I know got kicked out with a degree called "Masters in Business", he was very upset because that degree sounded like some online degree.

Don't worry too much lz... if the requirement was tough and you made through that is always good news! All the best...

you school is tending to the Rochester style, good sign !
It is better to be kicked out than tortured in a lifetime...
