i understand a lit review to be an overview of work in your field, pulling out the good and bad points and saying where your work fits and does something new. Google "how to write a lit review" and you will find loads of unis with good lists of questions to help.
Hi Sue,
Sounds like the form is simply a formality - no pun intended...okay well just a little one - I would try not to worry. Just be honest and say you need some extra time to finish up lab work as you begin your write-up or something. If everyone has these forms then sounds like it is a pretty standard thing. I have to fill out something similar...another chance for the uni to get some money out of us!
Thanks for being so honest WritingUp. I wish lots of luck for the next three weeks...hopefully there will be some big thunderstorms on Thursday and it will call things down for all of us trying to WRITE/EDIT. Good luck and as this board has proved...we are not alone! Keep in touch.
