Anyone there????I am a R & R...had my viva last week and it went so bad....it lasted for 6 hours...even knowing it was going to be wrong from the beginning, the external made me suffer and being in tension until the end. I do not understand why these things happen...it is so unfair. i have worked so hard, all my reviews were fine...i knew it needed maybe some corrections...but not for r & r plus possible re-viva. The external made me feel humiliated...no positive comment during those 6 hours, everything was wrong according to her criteria. They have given me 12 months and I am going to start a job soon...I do not even know if i will be able to do what they are asking me to change as i am already sick of it and i am devastated. What happen if i fail again? I am not sure I can cope with it if it happens again. Any advice? Thanks for being there. PD. the fact i suggested that external to my supervisor make me feel even worst...i thought she was going to give me useful feedback instead of making me feel like shit!!!
