Read Along With Me! (And go insane)

So the PhD program's own "trial by fire" isn't the dissertation, but the comps. After reading about three hundred books or so, I have to write an essay a day for three or four days and then go before my entire committee to answer any questions they ask. Allegedly the professors of the History department have a tradition of setting out to make any

Yeah, the comps are way harder than the dissertation. Looks like a great list. When is the exam?

You'll do fine. If I survived comps, and I'm a relative idiot, you'll have no problems.
