Thanks! 😊💙
Monday update: I feel so bad for the people reviewing it. I just got feedback and they said: "It's a very good start, requires a bit more seasoning. I've made some comments for you to look at". Now to do some editing! 🤣
You're probably already aware for this, but for the people playing at home - this is academic speak for: "sweet, looks like you know which papers to read and remember how to write like an undergrad. Now, let's teach you how to write like an ACTUAL scientist. Also, don't print this out - you'll run out of red ink on the first page"
But also, don't let the imposter syndrome hit you too hard - it's perfectly normal even for first year PhD students to still be struggling with report writing, and a thesis is a whole other kettle of fish. Your supervisor sounds like you're actually doing better than expected - which isn't a reflection on you, it's a reflection on what the typical honours student looks like. Hold your head high, and remember to take some pride in your accomplishments.
