It felt kind of weird to critique someone else’s writing, to be honest. I’m not really the type of person to critique others unless I absolutely know that I know more than them on a certain subject. But, this has given me the opportunity to do that. I think it really forces you to pay attention to someone’s ideas, and you really get to see how they think. It really shows you how we’re all unique in our own ways, and we ESPECIALLY don’t all think the same way.

I think some people forget that not everyone understands scientific jargon and what not, so I need to give some more context in my paper for that specific audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
