Thesis revisions - i cant extrospect!

M

THis is my first question on this forum.

I am in the final stages of reviewing my thesis. Unfortunately one of my chapters (the discussion) is causing me a massive headache. The comments say I need to hand-hold the reader through the chapter and for each topic re-itterate what the previous chapters aims and findings.

I have done this to the best of my ability. but I seem to lack the ability to take myself out of the thesis and see it from a novel readers eyes . I think i have had my head buried in it so long, i just cant take myself out of it. I have adding more details to my plan so that it does includes recaps of previous chapters wherever possible, but it doesn't seem like enough

Has anyone else had this type of problem with their discussion, or the thesis in general? If so how did you deal with them?

If has any tips or suggestions to help me extrospect I would be very greatful!

Thanks.

hahahaha excellent suggestion sneaks! Personally I don't think I would have succeeded in this, not because my mum won't get it but rather because she would not have that much time to listen to me with full attention. :-)
