How much preparation do I need to do?
Not too much.
How long will the viva be?
Not too long.
How tough will the questions be?
Not too tough.
How critical will my examiners be?
Not too critical.
How often do I need to read my thesis before the viva?
Not too often.
How likely is it that I’ll get no corrections?
Not too likely!
In my experience, PhD candidates over-estimate how much, how long, how tough and how good they need to be in order through the viva process.
Prepare, learn expectations and get ready. Your viva is not too much for you.
