The right of reply can only be obtained after the blind trial and the external trial are passed, and you can't graduate if you fail to reply. As long as two experts pass the blind trial or two experts pass the external trial, they have the right of reply. The defense Committee does not include experts from external auditors, and only half of them can graduate.

All doctoral dissertations and some master's dissertations are sent to other units for blind evaluation by the degree office before the defense, so as to ensure the quality of the defense thesis. In addition, the provincial and municipal education committees will randomly select a certain proportion of papers and invite other units to do blind evaluation to check the quality of postgraduate training.
