    Hi. thanks for these great tips. I'd like to ask about our presentation in Viva. I have been given 25 minutes to present the work I have done over the past few years. Since English is my second language and I am quite slow whilst speaking, I wanted to ask whether it is acceptable to do our presentation using a script to just be able to respect the time. I have asked many and it appears to me that some people are so against of it. I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts on this.

      Thank you for your question! Using a script during your presentation is perfectly fine, especially if it helps you stay within the time limit and express yourself clearly. Many examiners appreciate a well organised and concise presentation, regardless of whether it's scripted. That said, it's a good idea to check with your institution in case they have any specific policies or preferences for viva presentations. Best of luck-we’re rooting for you! Let us know how you get on!

    Mine is next year. I'm midway between not worrying about it and telling myself I'm an idiot for not worrying about it.
