A strong research proposal is more than a good topic.

Ask yourself:

✓ Is the problem clear?
✓ Is the literature review critical?
✓ Is the framework well defined?
✓ Is the methodology appropriate?
✓ Are limitations acknowledged?

Small improvements here can significantly increase approval chances.

R-squared is one of the most commonly used metrics to measure performance.

But it took me 2 years to figure out the mistakes that were killing my regression models.

In 2 minutes, I'll share how I fixed 2 years of mistakes (and made 50% more accurate models than my peers). Let's go:

This is the reason universities do not want to tell you.

Master vs PhD Thesis

[Emmanuel Tsekleves @PhDtoProf]

Everyone tells PhD students to read more papers.

After examining 45+ theses, I can tell you the problem isn't reading too little.

It's searching in one language.

Top Tools for Literature Review in 2026

[Dr. Banda Khalifa @dr_bandak]

Most students struggle with their thesis for one simple reason.

No one shows them the full structure.

They start writing randomly…

Then get stuck between chapters.

So here is a simple thesis outline that works for most graduate programs.

Chapter 1: Introduction

→ Background of the study
→ Problem statement
→ Research purpose
→ Research questions
→ Scope of the study
→ Significance of the research

Chapter 2: Literature Review

→ Theoretical foundation
→ Review of existing studies
→ Conceptual framework
→ Research gap

Chapter 3: Methodology

→ Research approach
→ Study design
→ Sampling strategy
→ Data collection
→ Tools and instruments
→ Ethics and credibility

Chapter 4: Findings

→ Key results
→ Data presentation
→ Unexpected findings
→ Hypothesis testing

Chapter 5: Discussion

→ Interpretation of results
→ Link to previous studies
→ Study limitations
→ Practical implications

Chapter 6: Conclusion

→ Summary of findings
→ Contribution to literature
→ Future research
→ Recommendations

Chapter 7: References

Save this structure.
It can save you weeks of confusion.
