SDC Business 313 - carebear_007 - 03-16-2021
I'm currently working on the assignment and it required 2500 words. I can't seem to get past 900.
For some reason I'm having a tough time putting together a research paper on a made up scenario with a made up company. I would appreciate any tips.Would they kick back or give a low score if I turned it in without the required amount of words?

I had a similar issue when doing Business 303 Assignment #2 case study, they did give me a low score and pointed out that my paper was below the minimum required word limit. I had around 600 words out of the 1,000 words required, however I found some of the grader's notes to be helpful - for example they provided additional details my paper was lacking such as revenue, operational details, number of employees & suggested adding a diagram for a better understand as my implementation was loose.

Are you at least hitting the rubric?
You likely depending on exam get a low score and pass, easy to see what you need.
I just wrote fiction and went with it. I think I actually only did around 2100 words if I recall.

I keep going back and referring to the rubric to make sure that I'm at least hitting them. The fact that this is relying on 1/3 of the score is what's getting to me. I read that the exam isn't just like the quizzes. Fortunately, I passed the quiz on the last few chapters to test my own knowledge which hopefully means something as far as the exam goes. I do plan on studying the flash cards as soon as I'm done with this exam.
Now I'm up to 1200 words. I just don't want to keep on rambling about something just to hit the numbers. Most of my sentence are now "I would do this" and "I would do that". Ugh...

Writing a paper is about coming up with ideas that support facts (source 1). These facts are things that can be used to persuade your reader (source 2). More stuff such as diagrams and pictures can be used (source 3). This is an easy way to write by using sources (source 4). My thoughts matter, but who needs thoughts when you can borrow others (source 5). The end. (my original thought).
