Huge congratulations Dr Pineapple :)
I have been checking in and out of the forum over the last few weeks pretty much just to see if you had any news. Enjoy the afterglow of that great result, do your minor corretions and it's done. You can finally move on. Well done.

Think you're over-thinking;-)
I agree with Hazyjane that it's just a case of finding a mutually acceptable time for all concerned. Mine was originally a Wednesday but then moved to a Thursday because (and I only found this out later) my supervisor himself had a viva on the Wednesday where he was the external examiner!
Good luck with the prep (up)
I would have to say that I agree with Hazyjane and Ian 100%!
However if you are set on pursuing the MSc then you have adjust your mindset. Writing a 1000 word essay is challenging but that is part of the challenge. I have graded many [admittedly undergrad] essays etc that have had different word counts, everything from 250 words (very tough to do) to 5000 word projects and I have always been tough on those who essentially ignore the word count. I think your 12,000 plus are too much even to edit and so I agree with Jane when she says tear it up and start again!
Other than that, hope you are enjoying your new life ;-)
