For anyone who didn't see me in my big red "Phinished" shirt: yes, I have passed. I have four months to put in some mainly very minor corrections (ie, consistently mispelling one of my examiners names, oops :)) and then I should graduate in September! The examiners reports were really very nice, lots of positive comments and fairly high marks(*). I knew if my supervisors weren't such perfectionists I could have handed in ages ago and passed, but noooooo :D

Annoyingly I have a big ol' headache, and that's after a 2 hour nap (I only just managed to finish reading the reports)
So I hope this isn't too badly written, just thought I should let you all know.

Also, tommorrow I find out if I get an interview for a job at scitech, fingers crossed!

Oh, and it turned out I hadn't told my mum we were going to england either. She was not amused :)

(*)It turns out you do get marks, getting a number from 6 (flawed) to 1 (exceptional) for six categories. One of them gave me a 1 for my Lit Review, yay!

scitech?

HUGE congratulations Sophie. You deserve them. And I don't often use all-caps. OK, more often lately. But that's beside the point. HUGE. CONGRATULATIONS.

Yay for Sophie! You are magical!

Good luck! You'd be so cool as a Sci-Technician :D

I should have realised that, shouldn't I?

Dr Mickey K has explained that in some parts of the world, finishing a PhD involves swords. I think he's planning a doctors-only sword-sharpening evening sometime this month. I should find out more details for you.

Swords, Dr Sqbr, swords I tell you.

Won't you need a sword when defending your dissertation?

hee-AH!

And you couldn't have told me this anytime over the last 4 days when I was running into you every half hour? *raised eyebrow*

Seriously though, congrats.

p.s. I can loan you a scythe if you don't have a sword!

Congratulations!

You're the person who everyone can hold up as an example of a UniSFAn who didn't fail

You're sure they won't just turn around and say "Just kidding, for mis-spelling your supervisor's name here, have a Masters"?

More seriously, congratulations :)
