This is a well-articulated piece of information for some of us who could not figure out where to start with this thing "ABSTRACT". Many thanks indeed.

[@kimiaishere]

just in time for when I needed help with my abstract!! FInally at the last step of this long dissertation journey!

[@rgarlinyc]

Very clearly explained - as usual - thanks a ton!

[@paulfitzgerald4625]

Thank you for these videos. I secured a First in my BA thanks to you. Now revisiting for my Masters. If I had one criticism, I''d just ask that you explain the difference between chapters. For example, a lot of these tips were mentioned in the Introduction section. How are they different?

[@learning2cube759]

As always, delivering actionable advice!

Thanks ! Where do you find paper without an abstract or can we do an abstract about a document that already have one ?

[@jasminebeverlyne5999]

hey i know am late but am asking how can you write a proposal for an organization based on SRHR

[@apollicino2824]

What if there is an open call for a conference that is more than half a year away? I was advised to submit an abstract about a research project that is not fully completed now, but will be by conference time....any advice on a preemptive abstract?

[@David_t04]

Pessimistically, because fund transfers always go without a hitch, right?
