Prep Matters

People succeed at their viva, for the most part, because of who they became during their PhD journey. The amount of work, the amount of knowledge, the scale of results and the personal growth – that’s what helps them create a thesis and it’s what leads them to success at the viva…

…but prep matters.

Viva prep is learning what to expect and working towards meeting that challenge. By the time you submit your thesis you are well experienced at overcoming challenges. Viva prep is a little bit of necessary work to help you feel ready for and succeed at the particular challenge of your viva.

Prep matters for how it helps you to focus. Prep matters because you can see what really matters when you slow down and take a little time for yourself. Your prep will matter to you because you are doing it to meet your needs.
