Hard Choices

If a decision in your PhD was difficult then there is probably something interesting to reflect on as you get ready for your viva.

  • What was the situation?
  • How did you assess your options?
  • Why did you make the choice that you did?

Hard choices might not be questioned directly in your viva but their impacts will likely be felt on your research and your journey.

It’s worth taking a little time in your preparation to reflect on how you progressed through difficult decisions.

 

PS: you’ll find advice for sharing your contribution at the viva in The Examiners Issue, the 11th issue of Viva Survivors Select which came out a week ago. The issue contains twenty posts from the blog all about examiners plus two new pages of viva help.
