She asked if she would graduate this year
A master's student overseas asked if she would graduate within the year. I gave the timing and noted some setbacks. She came back to say it had lined up.

Hello Zongyuan, I'm studying for a master's degree overseas. I'd like to ask if I can graduate smoothly within this year. 🙏
您好道长，我在国外留学读硕士，我想测一下，今年之内能否顺利毕业🙏

[redacted] mutual hexagram [redacted] indicates difficulty. A few notes: 1. The primary hexagram has bi jie, meaning competition — there is a set pass rate for your program. 2. The mutual hexagram [redacted] represents damage to documents or credentials. There are still some areas of your studies that are not fully up to standard this year, but there will be some leniency. 3. There will be some setbacks with graduation this year, but by the end of the year it will mostly go through, with some bumps along the way. When wood and fire rise, that means academic progress. The timing is around November, when both wood and fire appear. 4. A note on next year: bing is on the outside. You will go out to work next year, and most likely move to a different location.

困难，几个提示:
1 本卦有比劫，代表竞争，你们的通过率是有一定的比例。
2 互卦是[redacted]代表文书受损，资质受损，今年你还是有一些学业上不够到位的地方。但是会适度给你放宽。
3 今年毕业会有些挫折的事情出现，但是到了年底基本也可以磕磕绊绊得过去，见木火往上升，就是学业提升，时间在木火都出现的时候，11月前后吧。
4 说点明年的情况，丙在外，明年你会外出工作，多数换一个地点了。

Hello Zongyuan, just giving feedback. You were so accurate. 👍 It's basically the same as what you said. I finished my graduation on October 29th, which is really around November. The process before graduation was indeed a bit bumpy, but luckily the issues were not major.
道长您好，反馈一下，您太厉害了，
👍和您断的基本一致，我在10月29号
完成毕业，确实是11月左右，毕业前
过程也确实略微曲折，好在问题不大。

I plan to apply for a PhD next year as soon as possible. My first choice is a so-called 'water PhD' from a joint program between a private school in Singapore and a public university in the UK. Second, I'm also considering Macau University of Science and Technology or City University of Macau. I'd like to ask you again if there's any hope, and which option is better.
我打算尽快申请明年的博士，首选新
加坡的私立学校和英国公立大学合作
办学的水博，
其次也想选择澳门科技大学或澳门城
市大学，想再请你看一下有希望吗，
哪个选择更好
