Answering Hard Questions
The question you fear is usually the one you can answer best.

Panels ask about the weak points because that is where a thesis is tested, not because they are hostile. A prepared student answers the sample size question in twenty seconds and moves on; an unprepared one spends five minutes defending it and confirms it was a problem. We rehearse the five questions your work invites.
What you get
- Your sample size, and why it is what it is
- Why this method and not the obvious alternative
- What you would change with more time
- How you handled the result that did not fit
- The limitation you name before they do
