Crafting a literature review for your MSc thesis can be a daunting task.

It requires thorough research,


critical analysis, and excellent writing skills to effectively synthesize existing literature on your
chosen topic. Many students struggle with this aspect of their thesis, often feeling overwhelmed by
the sheer volume of information available and the complexity of organizing and presenting it in a
coherent manner.

One of the biggest challenges in writing a literature review is conducting comprehensive research. It's
essential to sift through numerous academic journals, books, and other sources to gather relevant
literature that contributes to your understanding of the topic. This process can be time-consuming
and requires a keen eye for identifying key studies and arguments.

Once you have gathered enough material, the next hurdle is organizing and synthesizing the
information. A literature review should not simply summarize each source but should critically
evaluate and compare them to identify key themes, trends, and gaps in the existing research. This
requires careful analysis and synthesis of ideas, which can be challenging for many students.

Furthermore, crafting a literature review requires excellent writing skills. You need to convey
complex ideas and arguments clearly and concisely while maintaining academic rigor and coherence.

offering their own insights and analysis.
