What can one do to increase the chance of finding a PhD?

J

Hello. Does anyone have any suggestions on this? I have an MSc but I didn't achieve distinction and now i'm finding it hard to get a PhD position (have received many negative answers). Is there something I could do to improve my chances or should I give up the idea of doing a PhD?

Hi, i thk i am in a position like you ... Can i ask you which discpline you want to do your phd and if possible how much percentage you got in your Masters .......i got 60 % in economics and am thinking abt applying for phd ... dont know if i e stand a chance ...

Hi, I did my MSc in physics , got the degree with about 65%. Some advice I could give you: apply in as many places as possible and in different research areas, if an opportunity arises (ie. interview) do your best to get it, have other options in mind too. Good luck!

Thanks really appreciate it ....
