Lots Of Ifs

If you were accepted on to a PhD programme…

…and if you did the work over a long period of time, overcoming difficulties along the way…

…and if you made a significant, original contribution…

…and if you kept going even through 2020, despite change and pressures…

…and if you’ve written your thesis as best you can…

…and if you’ve taken a little time to get ready for your viva, continuing to show your commitment…

then

Well, then why wouldn’t your viva go well for you?
