    Well, someone I know had the good fortune of having an examiner who was feeling ill and getting worse, but felt obligated to go through with the viva, knowing how problematic it would be to cancel and reschedule. It lasted less than 40 minutes before they just passed him and said examiner had to leave, ending up later that day at the hospital to have his appendix removed.

    So, hey - maybe something similar will happen for you ;).

    After all these 10 long years, I'm just about to make it to the other side! :glasses: I submitted the PhD thesis 10 days ago, and now I'm waiting to be called for the viva voce examination.:worried:Here's to minor or no corrections at all! :lucky: It's been a great journey! :smiley: I wouldn't change a thing! :joy:

    Can I have some "Good luck!"s? :prayer:

    P.S: Has anyone been through a PhD viva before? If so, any hints? :wink:

    Καλή Επιτυχία!

    Best of luck to you defending your thesis. :triumph:
