I had to write three 800-word essays and a statistics evaluation for this grueling 4-hour test. You get three tries, but passed it in one!
Such a huge weight off my shoulders!! I just have Chapters 1,3,4, and 5 of my dissertation left. Getting there!!!!

The literature review is the study of information about your topic. You do this first to help revise your research questions to add to the current information about there....I hope this helps!

That is great news!! I know that is a big relief now!
Since you are now "All But Dissertation," I am wondering:
1. Do you have a target date/range yet for defending the dissertation?
2. Are you wanting to pursue a career in higher education? Or something else?
(My apologies if you have answered these questions before.)
Thanks!

Congratulations! I understand the difficulty you went through. I’m a psychology major working towards a PsyD and statistics is a HUGE part of grad school. It’s pretty hard and kept me angry for many months. Statistics do not follow the rules of math. My focal point is clinical and I don’t plan on doing any research. I feel stats is wasted on clinicians. It’s also used as a gate keeper to keep the riffraff out of the harder degrees. I watched 65% of people taking stats fail. It was the hardest A of my career. Close second were some of the physiology and anatomy and capstone chemistry courses for the MD portion. My brain itches just thinking about it!

Congratulations to you as well. I thought you MD/Phd students were the brainiacs. Medical School is more of an intense technical degree.
