[QUOTE="Amiga500, post: 1070074, member: 56767"] Ah, now thats not true. They'll be presenting a range of data. Best-case, worst-case and (probably a few) most probables. If there is one thing anyone who has been in both will know.... once you step out of academia into industry, you realise within a few months academics don't know ****. They are neck deep in theory - but when it comes to do something in the real world - all their theories bog down in their own complexity and assumptions when you step beyond a few small sub-systems. Which is more accurate - the model that needs 10 assumed values or the model than needs 1 assumed value when you can only guesstimate what the assumed values will be? You can guess which one will have a Prof's name hanging off it. [/QUOTE]
