Hi, I just needed to write this here.

Sometimes, my advisor does not have the time to read the chapters I write, or she is too lazy to do it. When that happens, she does not tell me she did not read it, but she just tell me that the writing, organization, and stuff like that are so awful that I have practically to rewrite everything from scratch.

At the beginning, when I thought she was being objective and trying to improve my work, I just felt sorry for myself or motivated to improve my writing. Eventually, I realized that when she was like that she had no idea of what she was talking about, but she had the need of telling me something, of giving me feed back.

Now, I just detest that. When she tells me things like that, I just want to tell her "but, of course, you didn't read it. You don't know what you're talking about", or just quit the PhD. :)

At what draft stage were your chapters at when you gave them to your supervisor? In my experience, supervisors expect chapters to be reasonably well developed before they take the time to seriously read them and provide objective feedback. I made the mistake of giving an underdeveloped draft of one of my chapters to my supervisor, and he essentially ripped it to shreds, and told me to rewrite it before we discussed it again.

Welcome to the world of academia haha.

My advisor was negative toward my thesis. She did not read much or provided adequate guidance. Anyway, i passed.
My advisor also told me that my paper was not well written etc... However, this paper was published.

More importantly, I don't hate my supervisor. She helped in other ways such as recommendation...

My supervisor didn't bother reading any of my work either when I was writing up my thesis. Maybe she flicked through the cover/contents page, then had the cheek to tell me she couldnt find any mistakes in it at all (I found 4 typos on the first page *sigh*). My examiners essentially gave me all the feedback after my viva for my thesis. Mention the ignoring situation to postgrad admin, let them sort it out.
