    Thanks for the support - my chair has indicated that I will have her comments by the end of next week.

    Looking at it - I'm performing a qualitative soldier retention study. I struggled a bit with my chapter 3, and my chair may have issues with my lit review because I chose not to go in depth with civilian turnover lit and I kept a military focus with my lit review. We'll see.

    But, even though everyone has told me to be prepared to revise, a large weight has been lifted off of my shoulders...

    Thanks again everyone - I'll keep everyone up to date.

    Got the proposal back

    Of course, I have some revision to do - need to work a bit more on my chapter 3 and research questions - and to work hard to remove myself from the dissertation topic - looking to submit revised dissertation proposal by June 1.

    Thanks for sharing your adventures. It may help others along the way. I wondered why there were so many ABDs out there. Now I am beginning to understand!

    First Revision submitted

    OK,

    I submitted my first revision to my diss proposal on Wednesday while I was at Annual Training with the National Guard - should have some feedback within a few days.

    My guess is that after this revision - I will be a few "tweaks" away. I believe I addressed the major concerns my chair has...

    Just a couple of tweaks...

    Just got off the phone with my chair - we are a couple of tweaks away :)

    She is very happy with the proposal, and once we address a couple of minor issues, we are going to committee!
