Need to revise your topic?
Once you have done some searching, you may find that you will need to revise your
topicPossible Reasons: You can’t find publications on your topic Your topic is discussed, but not in the way you
expected Your topic is too general – you discover that it has too
many aspects (‘sub-topics’) to handle in one essay You see a lot of material on a related aspect that you
find more interesting and/or more practical
