UK. I am on 3.5 years funding program, by the time I would submit my progression report I would be left with 17 months to complete my PhD which is my main concern. The committee might not be convinced that I could get results in 17 months.

Hi, I am about to complete my 2nd year and need to submit the transfer report at the end of april. I do have research topic to work on but I am afraid that my initial would not be completed by the end of April. Since, I might not have substantial results by the end of 2nd year will it be a problem to get past the transfer? I am really worried and could concentrate on work due to that.
