  1. Working on a new project, after changing supervisors. Passed my PhD proposal defense, and now working on comps prep and validation studies!

      It's interesting that your proposal defense came before taking your quals. Do you feel that passing the proposal defense is helping you prepare for your exams?

      It gets confusing with the names of all the exams (proposal defense, quals, comps, prelims, etc.). I had my proposal defense, and was successful - so my prelims were waived, especially since I've already completed a Masters program. But I still have comps next term, and then my final dissertation defense in 2019. Plus, I already did one proposal defense before I switched advisors/projects, so this was my second one and was vastly more "informal" than the first. But I think, in a way, that yes, it is helping me prepare because I got a lot of good feedback about potential formats and ideas for my comps during my proposal defense. But I suppose we'll see when I do my comps next term. :-/
