The editing function is one of the few really important big things that you can learn in college-the ability to view your own. This means polishing, boiling down ideas, struggling to say things clearer and clearer.
Your Final Copy
1. In preparing the finished draft of your research paper, use only one side of white paper. Although a few instructors will specify precisely what size paper to use, the most commonly used paper measures 81/2 x 11 inches.
2. Type your paper without any strike-overs (erase errors thoroughly  and neatly) and be sure to double space.
3. Leave generous margins at the top, bottom and about a one and one-half inch margin on both sides to provide room for the instructor's comments.
4. Put your dictionary to good use by checking spellings and divisions of words you are not sure of.
5. Hand in the paper on time. It is not uncommon for instructors to deduct points for late papers.
