OK, so now my PhD defense is tomorrow. How common is that here? I am still working on my presentation and today I almost lost my scheduled room! Arrgh! I still have to get the food and some paperwork. Maybe if I can pull everything together I'll pass and get my degree in December!

Congratulations!! !! My Psychology teacher had her PhD. :-) She said her Dissertation was 98 pages long! I've also read that people start year in advance and you have to defend it etc. Sadly her PhD was not credited. :-) (SO MAKE SURE YOURS IS!! !) :-) Good luck on defending your thesis. :-) BTW what field is it specifically AKA for example Science what kind of science what kind of work are you looking at doing? (That kind of thing) :-)

I would pull my hair out over a 10-pager.

Another reason I'm not going to grad school...

It's about running an engine on ammonia with gasoline. I hope to make my thesis available online somewhere soon.
