    Her “bio master” as in her Master’s thesis? Why would she not have someone in her cohort read it? What happened with her PI? Were they just not checking in on her work at all? How could they get so far into a Master’s that she’s in the process of writing her thesis that you could find better sources in a week?

      Sounds like the above person was cohort. They didn’t really specify they weren’t just that she asked them. So there was probably a reason and she trusted them.

        I figured they weren’t since they described her as acting like she was better than them for her degree. It made it sound like that put her apart from them but idk.

          Or Insecurity and crippling low self esteem with a boundless assumption that everyone is comparing themselves as better or less than can eat people alive.
