Hi guys, I’m a first year mphil now.
Our school needs to submit an upgrade work in June to see whether you can upgrade to a PhD.
Today, I got the result that I failed and my supervisor asked me to do a 3 years mphil instead.
However, when I submitted my draft to him, the comment was positive. If he pointed out what I should improve, I whine I can make things right.
Last year, some students can resub it by September. I asked a resub to my supervisor, he rejected again.
Hi! Many thanks for your reply. I submitted my first draft to my leading supervisor in the middle of April, and he gave a very positive feedback and pointed out what I should change. According to his opinion, I revised my work and send it the second supervisor, who is the dean of the faculty.but he didn’t reply.
But I was informed yesterday, I need to do a mphil rather than upgrade. They believed my work is not critical enough and not focus on details. However, I think last year, some students got the second opportunity to resub.
I asked my first supervisor yesterday, he rejected a resubmission. I’m quite confused, if he thought I should improve, why he didn’t tell me at the time when I submitted the first draft.
Another problem now is about funding, if I can’t continue, I should refund the money...I’m an international student ... the tuition is really unaffordable...

I wonder can I argue for a resub???
Help!???!!!!
Hi everyone.
I just got my feedback from my mphil upgrade and unfortunately I failed. I am a first year mphil student now and our school requires us to submit a 20,000 words on May.
Before I submitted my work, I sent the draft to my supervisor and the feedback was positive. However, now he said he believed I cannot continue as a PhD, instead he asked me to do a mphil in three years!
I tried to ask for a resubmission,(this happened last years on some students) and he rejected.
Can I argue again? I just want a resubmission. And if he was unsatisfied with my work, why shouldn’t he tell on draft feedback?
Want help!!!!!
Any ideas????
