I wish I’d found your videos sooner! I’m a 2nd year PhD student and I’m really struggling with motivation at the moment, but just watching a few of your videos has given me a bit of reassurance that I’m actually doing okay and I will get through the next 2 years. So thank you!
I started my PhD journey July 2019, and I've been following you since then. You are awesome and I love everything you share. So helpful, encouraging and definitely makes me feel understood 😊. Thank you Doc
I love your videos so so much!! I started following you when I was looking for my PhD so even before starting, you have no idea how incredibly you have helped me!! Thank you so so much!
Starting my PhD at Brunel in October, thank you for the video 👍
im starting my phd at oxford this october so thanks for this :D
Where u go to high school
Dr Yonis my role model
please don't have role models. People will let you down as they're human. Have inspirations and leave it at that. For example she took time off for personal reasons due to her families circumstances can't share details, imagine you are a young black girl wanting to follow her footsteps as she becomes a professor only to find out she took a different route? now she may continue or not it's up to her, the point is, don't have role models, have inspirations. And yes she is very inspirational to many people;
@@KAIZORIANEMPIRE lol. Thank u
I'm starting my PhD this fall! Love your videos☺️ I'm excited for my experience and to be able to share it as well
Enjoyed your vlog. Keep up the good work! I work in CVD research here in Oxford.
Amazing! Good luck with it.
"Write everything down" PREACH IT. I will eventually learn that "oh, I'll remember that. I don't need to write that down" is the biggest lie that I tell myself.
UGHHH I WISH I SAW THIS BEFORE I STARTED MY PHD!! im 1.5 years in and tbh im not really enjoying my experience!
This is great advice! I'm starting my PhD program in August :) I just graduated from my master's program and to be honest, didn't find it too difficult. But I am terrified about this doctorate!
wow, your videos have so much value. i'd love to see some more specific to wet lab stuff - tips and tricks for keeping organised?
i'm starting my phd program this fall and definitely needed this video right now - thank you!
Lol why am I here 😭 I’m still in high school
that's good because then you will understand how the system works so you have all the necessary requirements :) , good luck with high school
I am starting a PhD this Fall - thanks for this!
Me too!
Thank you so much for the information Dr Amina! Could you please address how to fight procrastination as a first year PhD student in your upcoming videos? thank you in advance
Thanks for this. I am applying to PHD and Master's programs. 😍
I am writing my PhD in Economics . Just sent my first draft my Supervisor one and he sent me comments that really put me off. Just trying to pull up again.
I'm so over my supervisor aswel. So demotivated.
Same exact boat. My advisor shit on my proposal I was so proud of and I’m just so over all of it now.
Also, do you have any tips for applying to jobs/ internships as an 18 year old, who is waiting for a level results?
Can you do a video about organising thoughts and academic writings, on master and doctor levels?
TO BE HONEST i did a phd cause it was 3.5 years of free money lol i didn't want to get a real job too bad my fundings run out and i still have 1 month left to write lol
Best of luck!
@@nastehoabdoulkader8722 thanks, it went mostly well got 2 publications and writting another two along with finishing thesis, ill probably just copy paste the other two papers as chapters lol and change some words :)
A PhD seems very scary. The very prospect of having to write a long ass thesis for 4 years...added with poor funding, I couldn’t do it. I commend anyone who can though.
it is so so tough! im barely getting thru
Never apply for PHD programs that have no or poor funding. That was a mistake surprised nobody told you never do this.
Thal Lu I never said I applied to a PhD programme, my comment was purely stating the realities of what life as a PhD student would be like seeing that I am an undergrad student. Come correct next time.
Hey, do you know any courses science based mainly or any other, I can do that are free. Bc I’m just wasting time, waiting for a level results and I really wanna do like a course or something to learn instead of wasting time!! Even any UA-cam videos that teach Lectures
Check platforms such as Coursera, EdX or Udemy. I would recommend Coursera/ there are so many options there to gain knowledge. If you need a certificate, you can purchase it once you’re done with the course. Have a check. I hope this helps. Good luck!
I just posted a video about this on my page. They're STEM related though.
Greetings doctor asc mashallah
If I apply for 2 phD positions in same department because the topics are quite similar would that hurt my application??
suzan math I can’t see why it should! If anything, it should strengthen the application as it shows you are dedicated to the topic. Just make sure you emphasise on your practical experience. Good luckN
Have you done a masters degree? If so can you make a video regarding what course you did and how your experience was?
Would really appreciate it as im starting my MSc in September
Same, I’m starting my MSc in September. Hopefully it prepares me for the PhD.
Yes she. Did her masters in biomedical science at kings college
