Done!  — 1 week ago

Worth doing!

I actually enjoyed doing it although the final 3 days were hard as there were so many things to finish off.

Starting it I thought I could never do it.

It has not quite sunk in yet. I need to keep looking at the nice bound work and tell myself that it was me who did it.

I need to submit the final version by August 31, but my advisor wants to have a look next week. I’m moving on, and my dissertation is not bad at all, but some parts of it are pretty much a Frankenstein. I can do it, and will do it! Paraphrasing ilusm, wish me a goooooooooooood luck!

I have finished my 10,000-word disserataion into the effects of race, familiarity and emotional expression on the face overshadowing effect (FOE) for my Masters in Forensic Psychology. Yay!

Thanks for the cheers, those who gave them!
And for those still working on this goal, it feels great to finish, so just knuckle down the best you can and get it done – massive weight off your shoulders :D

I’m busy with my dissertation. Doing a qualitative study and is presently stuck with doing the themes. Any suggestions on how to do this without getting the themes all tangled up?

Believe it or not, I finished and filed my dissertation last month. I thought I would never be able to finish, but here I am. All done.

I passed!  — 2 months ago

Worth doing!

The defense went really smoothly. They didn’t even send me out at the room at the end to discuss. Now I have a couple minor edits to make before I send it to the graduate school for first submission.

Defense tomorrow!  — 2 months ago

Worth doing!

My defense is tomorrow. I met with my chair yesterday and she feels confident that I will do well. I’m a little nervous about one committee member in particular, a bit of a wild card, and hope he isn’t too tough on me. Hopefully I’ll be done by 5pm tomorrow!
