Darned cockwombles.
I've started an MSc recently, after 10 years away from formal education. I'm enjoying it greatly, but had underestimated the difficulties that a return to reading 'academese' would pose. I'm simply out of practice in interpreting simple points that are couched in unnecessarily complex and codified language.
Anyone have any tips (possibly from similar experience) for getting past this? Should I simply accept that some passages are completely opaque to me, and may or may not mean anything, or persist in trying to extract their meaning, with all the potential for madness, violent head-clutching and caffeine abuse that this entails?
