No idea what's got your back up and why Simon but enjoy your weekend (other insights available upon request!)
Just a postgrad - that's great news, glad your examiner responded so quickly. Congratulations!!
I'd like something that might suggest PhD without being, er, "PhD" ;) LOL!
Bumping thread - I submit in 2 months and would love to hear your ideas! :-)
Hi,
This is slightly spooky as I was also in a serious RTA and as a result didn't do too well on my GCSEs, took a year out, then only got CDD for my A-Levels. (I still have back problems to this day unfortunately - we were T-boned by a car, the driver completely failed to give way at a junction!)
I went on to get a 2:1 from a poly, an MSc from another poly, and now finishing a fully funded PhD at a top 5 University...
So it IS possible! It might be beneficial for you to do an MSc though, I know my Uni probably wouldn't have accepted me without that.

Hi all,
I would be very grateful indeed if anyone can send me a copy of the following...

I can get the second one - PM me :)
Hi Smiler,
Deep breath! I would really recommend that you sign up to the PSYCH-POSTGRADS list on JISCmail (Google it) and post your question there. There are many contributors there who have extensive knowledge of stats, particularly Jeremy Miles who has written quite a few stats books. They're usually really helpful.
Good luck!
Hi guys,
Does anyone have access to this paper?
I would love you forever!!!
Rachel :-)
I've got access :-) Let me know your email address and I'll email you it over!
Hello! :) I'm doing a PhD in a health psychology related subject. I'll put my responses below...
Conference organisers are often a bit lax with this. I wouldn't assume either way. It might be worth dropping them an email to ask either way - or in the cases of large conferences, a phone call to the admin staff works well too (and you get an answer straight away!)
I address everyone in my department, including both my supervisors (one of whom being a Prof and Dean of the school!) by their first name, and we wouldn't have it any other way. Whilst they have (much) more experience in the field we treat each other as intellectual equals... I learn from them and, occasionally... they learn from me! lol :)
