athos78- congratulations! that is amazing! you did very well !!

and thanks so much for the advice, that's really good to know, and i totally agree with you, writing takes longer than you think!

i'm at the "preparing for viva" stage, and working through my viva questions, which is taking longer than i thought. but your post has reassured me :)

Congratulations! Well done. I hope you are immensely proud of yourself. Thanks for the excellent advice. 2nd year seems to be a hard time so being told to stick with it really helps! Best of luck with your future.
