We understand that disapproval may be disheartening, but we encourage you to view this as an opportunity for growth and improvement. The following are the key reasons for the disapproval of your senior graduate thesis: 1. Lack of Clarity and Structure: The review committee found the overall structure of your thesis to be inadequate. There was a lack of clear organization and coherence, making it difficult for readers to follow your arguments and research flow. We recommend refining your introduction, methodology, data analysis, and conclusion sections to ensure logical progression and clarity. 2. Insufficient or Inaccurate Research: The committee noted that the research presented in your thesis lacked depth and completeness. It is essential to incorporate a broader range of relevant scholarly literature to provide a robust theoretical context for your study. Additionally, some cited sources were outdated or improperly referenced, causing questions about the validity of your research findings. 3. Inadequate Data Analysis and Interpretation: Your thesis failed to present a comprehensive and rigorous analysis of the data collected. The committee noticed inconsistencies in your data interpretation and insufficient utilization of appropriate statistical methods. We recommend consulting with your thesis advisor and taking additional courses or workshops to enhance your data analysis skills. 4. Weak Conclusion and Recommendations: The concluding section of your thesis did not effectively summarize the findings and failed to draw compelling conclusions.

Revise this section to highlight the significance of your research and provide meaningful recommendations for future studies or practical applications. We understand the efforts and commitment you have dedicated to this project, and we acknowledge the potential you possess to strengthen your thesis.
