OK, this is the situation.
1) I am going to finish my MRes in Politics in September. Pretty much all I have left is my dissertation, which I hope to finish ASAP even though it isn't due until September.
2) I am starting a full-time job on 12th May.
"So" you might ask, "what's the problem?"
"Well," I would reply "I think I've gone insane. Because"
3) I want to start an MSc in Economics in September.
To flesh this out a little, I have no actual trianing in economics and the maths involved may actually kill me, but we're pretending that doesn't matter at the moment.
The reason I'm thinking of a second Masters degree is because I'm not sure I really feel capable for doing three years more work for a PhD at the moment. I'm not sure I have enough for another year, but we'll see.
I'm looking into this because even if I don't do it this year, I might do it next year.
Yet all of this really depends on how I find working a full-time job and doing the dissertation. I might do it full-time or part-time, probably part-time because I've no actual training in the subject.
So, opinions, comments, and any general warnings against this path would be appreciated.
