There’s a lot of help available for your viva.
The secret is to ask for help before all you can think is “Help!”
- Your supervisor can answer questions, offer opinions and put your mind at ease.
- Friends can listen, share their experiences, support you and wish you well.
- Family and loved ones can help make a space for you to get ready. Perhaps they won’t know what you’re going to be doing at the viva exactly, but they can still support you.
- Your institution can offer resources, signpost the regulations and perhaps offer sessions or materials to help you feel ready.
Don’t leave any of this to the last minute. Don’t let stress, doubt and worries build up.
Ask for help. Don’t wait for “Help!”
