A graduate student's research questions didn't match her actual research problem. Once she rewrote them to align, she finished her dissertation fast. The mismatch was like comparing apples and oranges.
You know, one time I was working with a student and I said, look, when your problem is talking about apples and your research questions, talking about oranges, you're not going to get there. And, you know, that really pushed the student to understand this. And pretty quickly, apples and oranges became a joke between us. But she finished quickly because she was in alignment and her research questions did exactly what she needed them to do.
