This is perfect advice (in addition to a few more threads I have bookmarked), I'll be well prepared, and hopefully finish in the session. I'm not looking to finish in 8, 10, or double the amount of days by rushing things, but go at a comfy pace and also finish in the desired time of one session.
Thank you! You're advice at the beginning of my journey really helped me. Happy to offer some on the ground advice! Good luck next session! you got this!

Unfortunately, they've reduced the free version to the point that I don't recommend them but it was great to be able to do research, clipping the relevant text, and saving the right APA bibliography and footnote references so they were all ready to go when I started writing.
Also, the advice to communicate with professors is very sound. Most of them will bend over backwards to help, if you only ask them politely.
Thanks! I used to use evernote back in the day, but I agree it's done downhill. ObsidianSync isn't free but they do have a student discount which makes it like $3 a month or $20 for a year or something and all you need is a .edu email address.
I cannot stress the communication enough, it's really the foundation. Many of them are open to phone and zoom conferences as well if you ask. The whole university staff is incredible and want to see everyone succeed.
