Frequently Asked Questions
What makes writing sound "academic" instead of casual?
Precise word choice, hedged claims ("suggests" rather than "proves"), formal third-person voice in most disciplines, and consistent citation of sources are the core markers. Our common academic writing mistakes guide covers the specific errors that undermine academic tone.
Which citation style should I use if my discipline doesn't specify one?
APA is the safest general default for social sciences and education, Chicago for humanities, and IEEE or Vancouver for engineering and medicine. Our citation style comparison covers when each is expected.
