Question of the Week suggestionsEach week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

nervesmay have bindun already, but how about 'most nervous you have ever been'
i'm about to go into my phd viva (exam) and have been unable to eat for a few days, and haven't slept through the night for 3 weeks. i think i'm going to vomit too.
when have you been the most nervous, why, and how did you cope with it?
I'm coping by checking QOTW on b3ta, which is probably not the healthiest coping mechanism.

AwwI probably shouldn't tell you this, but I was my most nervous ever going into my PhD viva. The only thing that ever came even halfway close was my driving test.
After about 2 hours into the viva it's enjoyable - I promise. Remember - you wrote your thesis. You're in control.
Good luck!
