    You deserve much more recognition, I have a professor who's not great at explaining and demonstrating the proper way to implement APA. Thank you so much for the demonstration at the end!!!!!!! I'm finally handed a strategy and a way to tackle this bull.

    Took a year off of school to focus on work and now I'm back in school full time to finish up by the end of this year. I never understood APA but tried to fill in the blanks when a paper was due. I come back and I hear there was a new edition to learn. Upset, I went to UA-cam to help. Seriously made my life so much easier!!! THANK YOUUUUUU!!!!!

    • @smartstudent_official

      You're welcome! I know how frustrating APA can be. Especially since they just changed it! I have a full playlist for the new APA if you need help with anything else. Good luck to you and thank you for supporting this channel!

    Thank you so much! I don't understand why I was always taught how to use an MLA format, when all I have been using since college, is APA format. My paper has been so intimidating because I am unfamiliar with all the rules, especially the headings/subheadings, and you helped break this down! Thank you again for making this helpful video.

    I'm having so much trouble with teachers being unaware that left, bold headings are level 2 headings. I've had several of them tell me that my heading spacing was off lol 😂 I'm like noooooo it's a level 2 heading!! I think it was mistake for APA to use the same exact font for level 1 and level 2. It should have been italics because most people don't go beyond level 2. Not even level 3 has ever been necessary for me. And that way it would stand out more with the italics.

    I haven't done APA before. However, my thesis is supposed to be in this style. Only technical editing was done which clearly shows the levels but with numbering according to the text.
    However my style in the text, though easy to follow is definitely not APA. To repeat, my levels are clear and there are intext numbering. Please advise.

    Hi Chelsea, really awesome videos you're doing, your effort is definitely appreciated! If you have the time to assist, I am busy finalizing my paper and I'm stuck not knowing whether I should capitalize the word "Up" (Communicating Up - Level 2 section heading) or not. My research indicates that because it is classified as a minor word (4 letters or less), I am of the opinion that it shouldn't be capitalized. However, I have seen it capitalized before, which is confusing me at the moment. Any assistance in this regard would be amazing! Thank you.

  • @ezpickens42

    The word "and" is not a preposition. It is a conjunction. It still does not require capitalization in titles, but I felt the need to clarify.
