Out of 10 of us, 8 of my colleagues had dropped their PhD. And this is a story of many. Here are the common reasons why students drop their PhD.

Some supervisor always discourages their students, insult them and shout at them all the time. After some time students leave the place and PhD too.

Discouragement

Girls face bullying, harassment and inappropriate behavior by some supervisors and drop the idea to continue PhD.

Bullying or harassment

Lack of personal finance and independent funds, and personal finance problems eventually force students to leave PhD.

Lack of funding

over-optimistic students sometimes found PhD a “lack of opportunities” and so drop PhD and join some over-ambitious jobs.

Lack of opportunities

After some time, some students lack interest in research and drop their PhD.

Lack of interest in research

Some students find creative differences between them and their guide and at last drop the idea of continuing their research.

Creative differences

Some students feel alone, isolated and kind of “outsiders” from their social circle, friends or society. To be with them, they drop their PhD in between.

Feeling isolated

Many students find a decent job, an opportunity to go abroad, a family business and a better option than PhD and drop PhD in between.

Those who already decided to drop their PhD might be co-related to any of the points discussed above. I hope you like the story.
