About this ebook

Every year, thousands of graduate students across the US reach a critical milestone in their academic careers when they earn ABD, or all but dissertation status. The problem is, far too many never move past that critical juncture. They lose interest or momentum, are intimidated by the dissertation research, writing and approval process, or they lack a sufficient network of professors, peers, family and friends to see them through to the Ph.D. Sharing her experience, Dr. Judi Cineas shows students how smooth the dissertation journey can be with a little help and preparation. To facilitate her transition from ABD to Ph.D., she made a plan; stuck with it; enlisted available help and finished her dissertation in a breathtakingly fast six months. In Six Months to Dr., she shows readers how they, too, can apply the same time- and energy-saving tactics she used, and move from ABD to PHinisheD.You haven't come all this way in your academic career just to stop short of the finish line. Dr. Judi's practical, clearly written plan can work for you just like it did for her, and get you to Dr.a lot sooner, and with a lot less anguish!

Ratings and reviews

is a wonderful, wonderful, well written, well organized book. If you are a doctoral student and need a real guide to help you through the PhD journey, then this is the book that you need to have in your collection. I purchased Dr. Judi Cineas's book "Six Months to Doctor: How to Complete a Dissertation in Six Months" before I even started the PhD program last year, because I knew just by looking at the book's cover, that she meant business and that this book was full of the knowledge and energy that is needed to get through this PhD process. Presently, I am half way through the PhD program and I am reading the book for the 3rd time getting into the "deep tissue message" of the literature, because I can finally put the steps in the book to my real life gathering of information for my own dissertation! Thank you Dr. Judi Cineas'~ Stephanie Miller
