Ready to turn in Comps August 29, 2010

Posted by thinkphd in : CMP9200B , trackback

I re-read Dr. H’s tips note that he sent at the beginning of the course and one of the statements he made about APA formatting is a little confusing. I sent him a note asking for clarification on this point. I have my comps paper all ready to turn in but I will wait until I get back on answer on my question. Today is August 29 - I have 49 days to turn in the paper and I have finished in 29 days.

Now that I am finished the answers to the four questions, I think my papers will be acceptable. I have double-triple-quadruple proofread and checked formatting until I am cross-eyed. I had planned to have the paper finished by this weekend because I am planning a trip to Nashville with the children next weekend (Labor Day). I surely don’t want to be thinking about schoolwork next weekend!

I’ve enjoyed reading your posts and congratulate you on your ABD status. Reviewing previous posts I have a question. What was Dr. T.s statement about APA formatting? How did you resolve it?

Hi tiger490: Dr. H was my comps mentor, not Dr. T, who is my dissertation chair. Dr. H answered my question and revised his “tip sheet” to reflect the change. I also had a question about how he wanted the header to look; he stated to follow the syllabus which I did.
