Hi all,

I was just wondering if you all have a rough plan/schedule for your PhDs. Do you have a plan such as you will complete literature review in X months, complete the methodology in X months etc etc? I understand that the plan has to be flexible and will probably be iterative, but did you actually start with a plan? If you didn't, do you think it is useful to set yourself deadlines, so that the PhD will complete on time?

Also, if there a rough PhD planner/schedule/calendar that you have come across, please do share.

Thanks all! :)
