It's REALLY HARD to elaborate when 99.9% of the material is all big words that I don't understand. I'm generally a good person at filling in stuff to elaborate but how do you elaborate on stuff you don't understand? :think:

I'm a tad worried my paper is already hard to understand or inconsistent in places......can't worry too much about it now though.



Just got off the phone with a guy I know in the class.

He's on page 1. :blink:

Ya know... you only can do what you do. And you are trying hard, so hopefully, it will be enough for your human grader. I am sure God gives it high marks. ;) Glad you have a human who can help you make higher marks with the human grader.... ;)

9.0 of 10.

On a positive note, I haven't had to really fill stuff in as much as I've just been looking at sections of articles and throwing them in for good measure.

I'll be laughing about this paper someday..... :lol:

Oh, I don't know if I should say this... but from an old lit major who had to write a LOT of long papers....

Can you fiddle with the margins? Even .1 or .25 can make a difference sometimes....

Or substitute bigger words for smaller words that mean roughly the same thing. Kind of like 'eat' moving to 'consume' or some such thing? Some of those in stragic places can make paragraphs grow an extra line... and that can grow you a good 6 inches of 'paper real estate' sometimes....

Just saying....

Honestly, I really don't need to mess around with margins and stuff AnneLine, but I appreciate the thought :lol2:

I'm at 9.5 of 10......and yeah...I'll just blurb another tired paragraph.

It's late, but it's mostly there.

Glad to hear it, Sir! But there have been days and there have been papers! (And I got "A"s on some of those papers... so squirrel those ideas away, EagleEye!)

I'd prop you, but I am propless...

Let's both get some sleep....zzzzzz

My problem with papers is usually trying to go over the limit. But that is because they are philosophy papers. :hehe: I can pound out five or six pages of decent material in an hour and a half, if it is an area with which I am familiar.
