well of course depends upon font but at the standard 10 font i believe you're looking at around 350 for the first page and 400 or so each additional. man its been a while though since i've written to a word count but that is off the top of my head. something tells me i'm wrong and its a higher number than that though

Mine are normally 250-300 words per page using Times New Roman 12pt font. I guess I use larger words than most.

Hell Rob...just type out a page and make Word do a word count. That should give you a good idea of how much more you have to write. I'm glad I got most of my heavy writing classes out of the way already.

Yeah, MLA standard is 12pt

Somehow, I found a loop hole in my school's writing req's.
If I passed the final course, I wouldnt have to waste my time with the previous ones - I got a 3.7 and bypassed their little system. If you have the chance, see if something like that exists for you. |

i'm not sure what you mean, by passing the final for the last writing course you skipped everything? or by passing the last writing class you didnt have to take the ones that would have come before it? |
