- These are very common mistakes that you need to fix before turning in your "smooth draft."
- using 1st person (I, me, my, mine, we, us, our & ours)
- You need to spell out single-digit numbers (e.g., one instead of 1).
- You also need to spell out numbers at the beginning of a sentence (e.g., Thirty percent of people...)
