Forgive the homework help like nature of this thread, but I have to try. I am one week from submission and stressing/struggling with my PhD thesis on 70s American political violence. My supervisor is too busy to help at the moment and friends and family, though well-intentioned, have not had particularly useful feedback. I'm looking for as much help as anyone is willing to offer- read a chapter or two, comment and point out any obvious errors that I've missed because I'm too close to the damned thing at this point. I'd be very happy to return the favour! I'm looking particularly for any spiffy flared members in here, preferably anyone with a PhD.
Your supervisor is too busy to help you a week out from submitting your PhD thesis? WTF?
Okay, that's besides the point; let's talk this through right now. Firstly you'll need to answer some questions - to yourself, mostly. First and foremost what are you worried about? Accuracy of information? Quality of the argument? The strength and "soundness" of the grounds which link evidence and augment together?
We can't help you with those, realistically. You are a week out from submission. Your supervisor should be shot if you, at this late stage, have doubts about the quality or cohesiveness of your work.
Now ask yourself this; if it was handed in to the committee today, do you think those worries would be serious enough to see it not pass?
Unfortunately I'm not a PhD -- I'm a lowly Masters student. However, since you've only got one taker, I'd be happy to look at a chapter and do what I can if you think it will help.
