  • I wrote my dissertation last year and I learnt so many things as I struggled through writing my introduction, literature review, statistics and methodology, conclusion and bibliography. I picked up tricks on how to reduce the word count of my dissertation, how to increase my grade, how to write a good literature review and more! Today I share with you my top Dissertation Tips, dissertation tricks and dissertation Advice that helped me get a 2:1 and will hopefully help you get a first, 1:1 for your university thesis/dissertation.
    Dissertation Advice I Wish Someone Had Given Me before writing and submitting my dissertstion. ( Grade Increasing Advice).
    I struggled for the whole year with my dissertation. I eventually got it done and sent it off. Writing my dissertation was stressful. Writing my final thesis. I explain what a dissertation at university is. Explain the benefits of doing a dissertation at a university in the UK. Pros and cons of doing a dissertation. A very long essay... This dissertation was for my economics and Finance degree at the University of York. University dissertation life. How do people write their dissertation in a day. Writing a dissertation in 24hours. That seems crazy to me... More like an essay crisis/dissertation crisis.
    A final thesis is the same as a dissertation. University students and college students call a dissertation a final thesis. Should you do a final thesis? should you do a dissertation? I give you the answer in this video...

    Join me and the people I meet along the way in discovering adulthood by listening to the "In My Twenties Podcast". Now, I don't know about you, but it all seems a bit mad to me so I thought I should put it all out there on the internet (I bet you can relate to it!).
    ABOUT ME:
    I'm Dylan (21), an Economics and Finance Graduate from the University of York (with a year studying abroad in Australia at USYD). After discovering Investment banking and Economics wasn't my desired career while studying at university, I decided to audition to do a MA (Masters) in Professional Acting at top drama schools across the UK, eventually landing a spot at ALRA - Where I am training for the next 15months... Despite the career change Economics and University life was the most valuable experience I've ever had. My 2 biggest hobbies Travelling and Investing in the Stock Market arose out of it along with many other great things. Subscribe for Productivity, Efficiency, Acting, and Lifestyle Vlogs!!

    I’m currently writing a dissertation on the impact of the 2015 migration crisis on UK politics and what I’ll say are the two biggest pieces of advice for me are planning and starting your dissertation early. I only started on Monday and it’s due on may 17th so I’ve now written about 3500 words whereas my housemate has been doing bit by bit since February and has written 7500 words. To contrast how our lives are rn he’s at a tester concert and I’m at home writing about nationalism, securitisation and populism...

    I hand mine in on the 28th May!! I did a secondary research dissertation so didn’t have stats but I still hated the analysis part! The tables thing is so important- even when I’ve had to write up notes for presentation I left more words on pictures of the slides compared to my notes ☺️ thanks for all the tips!

    In kind of the same vein as what you said about your lit review, if I found a really good article, essay,, or really any type of primary source that seemed reallt useful, I would go and check out all the things the author/s referenced in their writing and usually it turned up really good stuff. This was for my masters diss and I got an A at 82%

    Great video. When your dissertation will be available for purchase? I am writing mine, 10000 words for the University of Essex but I am struggling with the format. Not sure what should be in each section, I wrote my proposal and scored poorly but did not have any guidance from the university. I have content, I know what I want to say but I am struggling to put things together.

    I remember last year when you were talking about finessing the word count by putting stuff in tables
    I did that this year (deadline is in 2 days) and i'm gonna think about adding more graphs because that's a good point. Thanks!

    I never done a dissertation as of yet in my academic career. The closest I got is a formal report on why Canada is Losing Biodiversity 4 years ago. All the formatting , word count, and editing. It is probably one of the most well structured reports I have done up-to-date however, going back and looking their are some errors I noticed. I am taking Business Writing Strategies during summer that has one at the end. We determine the proper communications for a business. part of me is like why am I doing this to myself again but also excited because my writing has got better since then so to compare.

    first year economics/accounting where I had to do a literature review, and I did it on the effects of Covid-19 on the labour market and the consequences of that on long run economic growth, I completed it within an intensive 2 week time frame and got 70%. I have a choice of doing a dissertation in my final year, but I don’t know if I should. Do you think if I didn’t do a dissertation in my degree, it could lower the potential of me getting a better employability prospect?
