Hi all, I am currently a masters student in one of the Erasmus Mundus programs and intend to go direct for my PhD as soon as I finish my present program. We are now submitting our topic proposal for the masters dissertation and will be rounding off the program next year August. My worry are as follows,

1. How do I cope with writing the PhD proposal while still writing my masters dissertation?, and
2. How will the school for the PhD assess my masters program since my masters result will
not be ready at the time of my application later this year?

I will be happy to hear your views regarding these two issues that are giving me sleepless night.
