My Chapter 4 returns from my principal supervisor and part of the feed back reads:
"Please read through my comments - there are not too many, but they impact the overall chapter and what you are writing. Main issues are:"
1/3
1. Not finishing off paragraphs, I have given examples of this 2. Statements that need some evidence or why they happen 3. Not enough of the story to give the reader the picture needed
" ...let it sit for a day and come back to it, this may help"
2/3
Every feedback means more work for me but I love how patient my supervisors are in guiding my learning.
As the final line of her email suggested, I will let it sit for a day and return again.
One day at a time until it is over. Keep pushing AAP.
Now that you are here. Also look up this important scholarship (RTP)
You can watch a video I talked abut it on my website, the video is titled "SECURING SCHOLARSHIPS TO STUDY IN CANADA, USA, UK, ASIA, EUROPE AND AUSTRALIA"
On Thursday 26th August, 2021 at 2:00pm, I got off the phone with my friend doing a PhD in another institution who explained to me his horrific experiences with his supervisor.
My friend has been struggling to get his family into Australia since he started his PhD journey. Like everyone else he was supposed to apply for an exemption for his wife and child.
Although he had every document required, he needed a letter from his supervisor to support his application but apparently and in his words: "the man does not want to have anything to do with my personal life and my family".
Do you feel the need to share it with others to benefit or do you think sharing with others will limit your chances of having access to the opportunity?
It could be a job, a scholarship, a contract etc.
I apologise with my confronting questions but come with me as I explain the gains of sharing opportunities with others.
In 2017 while undertaking my master's studies in the UK, the Commonwealth Scholarship organised a workshop tagged "Connect and Communicate".
I understand your passionate desire to secure a scholarship. I am here with a few points for you to consider while you work on your applications.
1. Be prepared for rejections. Many will come.
Most scholars who have been successful with many scholarships get baptised with many rejections. The initial rejections are to test you and see if you will give up. The guarantee is that you will secure a scholarship if you keep applying.
However, if you get discouraged and stop applying, the guarantee is that you will NOT get a scholarship. Keep applying.
2. Do not be discouraged by scholarships that have a caveat that you must return to your home country after graduation.
