Not even close.

So what are your options if you don't get a faculty position?
Also, I mean, what kind of places are you applying to? Only Ivy leagues? Only top 30 schools?
what about small colleges? but perhaps you don't like to teach... hmm... don't know what else to say.
I think academic system sucks. I am a 6th grad student, and feel like I am at the mercy of my professor. It is really unfair, because he has such high expectations for my research, but he lets out other students who's thesis is much less spectacular.
