Good grammar, correct syntax and a consistent legal referencing style are crucial for getting your message across to lecturers, which in turn will lead to better marks.
Editing Online allows organised students to have their work thoroughly proofread before they hand it in to be marked. lawskool.com.au's professional proofreader, KC, will edit your work using the track-changes feature in Microsoft Word and email your essay back to you. You can then either choose to accept or reject the suggested changes. Provided you email your work to KC with time to spare, KC will also provide you with a page of comments on your work, explaining why changes were suggested and what you can do to improve you general writing style.
lawskool.com.au would like to encourage students to write well. The intention is that instead of simply accepting the suggestions, you will understand your mistakes and be less likely to make them in future. Writing well is a great skill and will serve you throughout any future career you may undertake.
