hi everyone,
i saw my new supervisor today and i am unsure of my research topic. she reckons i should change it slightly. i also agree that i should be more precise. feeling very low now, wondering if i will ever get a phd having wasted one and a quarter years. can anyone console me that it's gonna be ok in the end??

I have just started, but in my first meeting with my supervisor he said that even if I spent some months (say until the middle of the academic year) refining my topic, it would be perfectly ok and I would be able to finish my PhD in 3-3,5 years as initially proposed. So I don't think your situation is really desperate!
