This book was clear and to the point. A quick read filled with excellent pointers, many of which I will keep in mind while creating a post-graduation plan. I found that some of the information boiled down to common sense, but I've learned over my years that common sense is often not so common. I didn't appreciate how frequently Palmer repeated himself. He kept using the phrase, "I mention [x thing] earlier, but it's worth repeating." If everything is worth repeating, then nothing is worth repeating, in a sense. One of the appendixes is essentially a condensed repeat of some of the chapters, but it's great for reinforcement. I'd recommend Now What, Grad? as a guide, but not a an end-all, be-all.
