Noooo!!
This paper, which is worth 20% of my final mark, is supposed to be 6-9 pages long. After extensively editing and removing all extraneous material, however, it comes to a total of 4 pages (5 if you count work's cited).
On the bright side, I've shortened all my prepositional strings to 3 prepositions of fewer and removed
all instances of the passive voice. So I'll get top marks on form, at least.

wow, I totally sidetracked as I was posting this and I remembered that it was supposed to be double-spaced, not 1.5 spaced. The change brought the paper up to 5 pages long, which is much closer to 6.
It's still a bit short, though.
