You Can’t Lose

Daily Post

The viva isn’t a game. The viva isn’t a quiz.

You’re not scoring points. You’re not competing.

You’re presenting your work. You’re responding to questions.

You’re sharing what you did and demonstrating what you can do.

Do the work, prepare and go to show what you know and what you can do.

The viva is a demonstration and confirmation.
