Top 40 Potential Viva Questions
I submitted my thesis way back in March but, somewhere between CREET and the Research
School, the documentation was lost or abandoned for a couple of months. Add to that a spell in
hospital when they finally got round to fixing a date and Im left with a viva in late August,
when my thesis is fast becoming a distant memory and Im on the mend from major surgery.
Of course, successfully completing a viva affects all sorts of things: employment prospects,
roles I can take on at the university, status, pay and I could have done without lying in
intensive care worrying about the event itself. Someone, somewhere at the university has
messed things up big time not that they are apologising for it, or even owning up.
But, apart from awarding the unknown culprit(s) a #massivefail hashtag, Im thinking positive
and working on possible viva questions. Ive been setn, or read, several lists of these so here
they are, my selection of the Top 40 Potential Viva Questions.
