Hello Ivanna, that was a great introduction video for anyone considering coming to Norway! I am doing my masters right now and I have already finished my courses so I have a thesis grade which will not affected by the dissertation that I am writing (there is no grade system for dissertation in my counrty, just pass or fail). I am planning to finish it by March-April 2022. I am wondering can I apply with my thesis grade without finishing my dissertation?

[@Jae-oz1pp]

First off, thank you so much for such an informative video. It looks like you keep getting so many comments and questions on it so I just want to say how much I appreciate you for answering a bunch of academic questions from internet strangers! Second, my own question: I'm currently planning out my master's degree and there are a couple electives I can take that could help me make a better thesis BUT the professors are notorious for giving out harsh grades, average is a D. Is the thesis grade the most important for PhD admissions? I'm wondering if I should try and take some classes that I know I can get an A in but maybe miss out on some skills that are becoming more important in my field. Thank you again!

[@IvannasNorskLife]

Hi. There are two parts: grade for Master Thesis itself is important and should be B or A. But there is also another grade that is average for all courses you have taken (master thesis is not included): here also is B or A. But grade for master thesis is more critical than the average grade from all courses.

[@Jae-oz1pp]

Thank you!! And I hope all is good in your new-ish position!!

[@AHBaqi]

Hi Ivanna, many thanks for your informative video.. Based on your experience in Norwegian graduate schools, I was curious in knowing how employable my application might be if my academic CV contains a postgraduate degree from a well ranked European university, but the GPA is not more than B.. with only 2 publications (one of them was my master’s thesis published) and only 3 conference proceedings, as all my master’s projects are based on real companies and are also listed.. besides other skills such as (latex writing, statistics, and speaking 5 languages, with IELTS 7.5 and basic Norwegian A1 level).. However, I do work at a higher education institution but not as a teacher.. in fact I still didn't enrol to any graduate school or PhD program and this due to the fact that I am on process of doing my GRE test.

[@nguyettoleanh9288]

Dear Ivanna... Congratulations for your new position-Associate Professor! I am waiting for a PhD decision of a university in Norway and really looking forward to be hired there.. During the interview, when I expressed something, for one issue, I talked in English not very smoothly because of some vocabularies which I dont know..and I seemed very happy and smiled very often during the interview.. So I am now a bit worried.. Is this a fact that Norwegian wants to find a serious person (who does not show the moods a lot) to be their PhD student?

[@IvannasNorskLife]

Wish you good luck with getting a PhD position. I smile a lot and it never have been a problem, but I cannot speak for all Norwegian. In my personal opinion, your professional attitude should be more waited, but working with nice and positive person is usually easier than with rude person.

[@nguyettoleanh9288]

@@IvannasNorskLife thank you... I am Asian so I don't know how they would think about me. Yes, during the interview, I felt very relaxed because the professors all were so nice and let me lead the talk.. it lasted for 37 minutes, is it normal or too short for an interview in your opinion?

[@IvannasNorskLife]

@@nguyettoleanh9288 It sounds like you had a nice interview. Your nationality shouldn’t be of concern at all. The choice should be based on you skills, professional characteristics and if future supervisor can work with you (meaning that you have similar perspectives on how work should be organized). Imagine that your supervisor loves to micromanage and check every single task, while you personally work better under less supervision (it would be a hard 3 years for you and your supervisor). Or if you like to be guided a lot, but your supervisor is comfortable with more self driven and independent person. Such mismatches can be critical during PhD and may result in many psychological issues afterwards.

[@nguyettoleanh9288]

@@IvannasNorskLife yes, I mentioned that in my interview. I just said I would like to do the topic A, and B but I would like to find supervisors while I will study there, as somehow personalities would not match.. I don't know whether it is good or not when I did not mention any specific professors' names..What do you think?

Thanks for the informative video, I had two questions, I'm planning my graduation in May/June - 21, so the time I am having after graduation will be sufficient to grab a PhD position by September/October - 21? Because August is Vacation season in the EU. And, can I apply for a PhD while I am doing my Thesis as an Intern with an extended contract?

[@IvannasNorskLife]

Hi. Typically it takes about 4-6 months to get a PhD position. Important to know that in Norway July is a vacation season. Most likely you would need to finish your master first because your master thesis grade will be an important factor for the committee. Trying to land an internship could be a good idea, but do not count on it that much.

[@Imbrad91]

On the references in the application, do these people writing letters of recommendation absolutely need to be academic references? I went to industry after my masters and the people best suited to talk about my work performance and ethic are my managers, VP, team members, etc at my company which i work for. Also, i read that a lot of PhD positions require a Master’s Thesis as part of the application, but if I understand correctly I can possibly replace this with years of industry experience in an area of research interest instead of publications and Master’s Thesis?
