Next week I start my comprehensive exams. I'll receive written questions from my advisory committee members and be given 24-48 hours to answer. If I successfully complete those, I will have two weeks in which to put together an NSF-style grant proposal. Upon turning it in, the committee will take two weeks to read and critique the grant proposal. If they deem it acceptable, then I will have to defend said proposal as the oral portion of my comps. This next month is really, really going to be horrible. (M.R.S., stop reading right here.) If I fail... Hey, I've reached the point where a Master's wouldn't be so bad. Not bad at all...
If I pass, then I'm officially a PhD candidate, and all that'll be left will be to finish my research, write my dissertation, and "Ease on down, ease on down the road!"
