Fresh Thinking

There’s a lot of fresh thinking in and around the viva.

Your thesis has to contain a significant and original contribution; there must be something new and fresh in it.

To get ready for the viva you have to look again at what you’ve done and try to explore it in different ways to be ready for your examiners.

Then your examiners will likely have fresh questions at the viva. You will have a lot of experience of talking about your work but it’s probable you’ll face a question or idea you’ve never considered before.

There’s a lot of fresh thinking in and around the viva – but thankfully you have a lot of knowledge, understanding and experience.

PS: your significant original contribution is a big discussion point for the viva – find out what else to expect at Viva Survivor, my live webinar on Thursday 5th December 2024!
