How it works
The generator reads your title and abstract as an examiner would, looking for the claims a committee will test: why the question matters, why the method fits it, whether the results support the conclusion, and what the study can't show. It writes twelve questions specific to your thesis, pitched at your degree, in the order a defense usually runs.
Rehearse each answer aloud in under a minute, and turn the hardest questions into backup slides after your conclusion. For the structure of the talk itself, see thesis defense presentations and a complete thesis defense example.
Examples: a question and how to prepare
Likely question
Why did you monitor only four green roofs, and how far can the results be generalised?
How to answer
Explain the constraints on the sample, then show which results you expect to hold elsewhere and which depend on local conditions.
Likely question
Why a qualitative design rather than a survey?
How to answer
Link the choice to your research question: what interviews could reveal that a survey could not, and how you addressed bias.
Likely question
What would you do next with another year of funding?
How to answer
Name one study that tests your main limitation directly, and say what result would change your conclusion.
Questions
Most fall into five groups: why the topic matters and what you contribute, why you chose your method, what your results mean, what the limitations are, and what comes next. Committees also ask about anything in your abstract that sounds stronger than your evidence.
