    Girl, I'm doing engineering and this video just confused me even more. I never thought how different humanities and stem dissertations could be, but they be different. Anyone in stem, this isn't the video for you and it's absolutely impossible to do a dissertation in a week, especially if there's modelling or experiments involved. Give yourself at least a month/two months
