Long or Short

Daily Post

There are lots of reasons why a short viva might be “good” but no good reason to try and make it that way.

The viva is not a race, so you don’t have to rush. The viva is not a quick-fire quiz, so you don’t have to respond to questions quickly.

Listen.

Breathe.

Take your time.

Long or short, your viva will be over sooner than you think.
