I'm so happy to share that I have successfully passed my comprehensive exam
I can't explain how happy I am
and now I am ready for the next step to finish my PhD
I am going to defend my proposal
all summer long I have been working on finishing up my proposal
I also get done one research paper that will be part of my thesis
as in, for now, I have 1 book chapter, 2 papers, and 1 journal
while writing my thesis, I might as well finish another paper so that I can convince my committee member on my work
Oh back to the comprehensive exam part,
I begin with presenting all questions and answers from my committee members
then, I open the Q&A session
most of my committee member was happy with all my answers
just have one detail questions that I need to answer at that moment
the presentation and Q&A last for 45 minutes
after that, all committee member sign the form and I just need to submit the form to my academic advisor
then it's done!
I was over the moon for that
but now, I'm freaking out for my proposal defense because it's gonna be open to public
any students or professor can attend and may I ask any questions as they wish
oh that's nerve-wracking
I wish everything will go smoothly
