    Well done to everyone who's finished.
    I'm panicking a bit now. I've just finished my first draft for chapter 3 and am very excited. But I'm only on 29368 words out of 60000. I have to have it all finished by next thursday which means I need to do about 4000 words per day!

    30,000 words in a week? Oh my! I wouldn't like to edit that whole piece of work, a dissertation is bad enough! :D

    I'm so happy to have stumbled across this thread. I'm less than half way through my dissertation and have less than 2 weeks left. I've got 20000 words to do so I've got a fair way to go yet. Good luck to everyone here! I'll be popping back in the hope of getting some inspiration...
  • Reading some of these comments, i'm sooooo glad that my uni days are long past! The comments bring back the nightmares!

    Good luck all ...and don't take too many Pro-plus tablets!
