One of my mates calls Cobs Baps.

Once he said to this woman, "Two of your biggest sausage baps please love" She nearly gave him a slap ;)

My friend from North Yorkshire calls them 'breadcakes' and has the nerve to call me weird for saying they're cobs. >_<

It is also well known that a bap and a roll are soft versions of a cob. A cob is crusty like an old laydee.

My 3,000 worders are usually anything between 5-7 pages if that's any help.

Well my Media teachers 100,000 word PhD is 437 pages, and my 2000 word essay was around 7 pages. So i'm guessing it'll look around 25-35 pages. Make sure it's doble spaced and at least size 12 font though, and it's properly (harvard :@) referenced. Else you'll get banged up in Guantanamo!

And I bet you don't have to use the joys of turnit-fooking-in!

Enjoy it, writing essays is wonderful :unsure:

Same, very little of this Harvard stuff to. Marks back in 2 weeks

40% :sweating::fc:

Passed one module in my first year with 40.9%. If that's not finding the perfect work/party balance then I don't know what is. :cool:

I love my liberal department. :wub:

I don't love my nazi department

On my essay back She told me to make the font a bit bigger, and oh my the spaz they have if you don't do double spacing, they make such a big deal of it!

And I tell you, I have seen some people more stressed over the referencing than the essay itself. If you don't cite IN the essay, that's a fail, if you don't put the references at the end, it's a fail. You also get marked down for not referencing correctly, and from now on, us 2nd yearers must make sure the references at the end of the essay are in alphabetical order too, by surname

It takes twice as long to reference as it oes to bleeding write the bugger! >_<

For the record, they are definitely cobs. Calling them rolls or baps ( :giggle: ) is tolerable but breadcakes is completely unacceptable. As for Blackpool residents, they call them barmcakes. FUCKING BARMCAKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually that's annoyed me. Rolls and baps are wrong, cobs are right. TRUTH ON CHIPS.

Better lay off the Jack Daniels I reckon.

I love Turnitin, wonderful bit of kit. As for referencing, oh joy! Harvard is a bitch, much prefer the footnotes system in English.

When you get in the minset of Harvard, it's easy. But It took me ages earlier this year to get to grips with it, having not used it for 6 mumfs.

I also don't appreciate being asked over and over again to help reference people's essays, when I use the handouts to work it out for myself, and am then expected to work wonders for others. Still, being the class nerd does have its disadvantages <_<

I did a 4000 word essay for Philosophy in A-Level and that came up to 8 pages.

So for me yours would be about 16 pages roughly.

And referencing is easy! Well, easy when your uni/department give you a Handbook and step-by-step guide to Harvard referencing lol
