不知道同学们有没有遇到过代写Essay扎堆的情况，这种情况想必大家都非常头疼。单单是Essay Format都不知道该怎么处理，Bibliography/Reference又该怎么写?要怎么才能做到不被扣Format分?下面就给大家讲解一下Essay写作常见问题。
对于所有的Academic Essay来说格式都基本相同。
字号：12-point font size
字体：Times New Roman
行距：double-spaced
另外，对于Arts科目来说，字数限制也十分重要。部分科目会将in-text citation或者footnotes也算入字数中，具体需以每科的Assignment要求为准。
The length of the paper should be XXXX words(+/-10%).The penalty(5-point deduction)will apply to a paper which is outside this range.
Plagiarism对于Essay来说至关重要!每一篇Essay都会经过Turnitin系统检查内容相似率。因此citation的必要性就不言而喻了。
APA style?Harvard system?
Chicago?Or MLA?
What?到底该用哪一种?
它们分别又有什么格式要求?

要求同学们在开始进行段落开头写作前按一下Tab键以替代空格首行缩进;
双倍行间距Double Space;
字体要求Times New Roman;
Intext citations格式：
