In Class Assignment, Revision
When I write a paper, I revise it over and over again. I usually write a first draft and then I revise it multiplet times. I always struggle with my first draft because I never know how to begin writing a paper. My first draftis always a jumble of random ideas and sentences. When I revise, I usually expand on the ideas I wrote in my first draft. I also add a lot more detail. Sometimes when I revise I delete entire parts from my first draft. I also usually restructure my entire draft and move paragraphs around until I think my paper makes sense. To me, revision is the long process of editing and fixing my paper as much as it needs.

You actually revise a first draft multiple times? Good for you! I wish I had done that as well... I tend to spend a lot of time on my first draft, trying to make it the final product, and I will pay more attention to that. Good luck on your finals.
