APA style of writing has been a huge part of my college career. Although this particular writing technique can be challenging at times, I believe my APA writing skills have become more developed as I have been required to utilize them more in each class. APA adds consistency and clarity in any writing by taking the emphasis off of how information is presented and focuses on the information itself. In the beginning, when I was learning the ins and outs APA, I was thoroughly confused in every way. I had no idea why punctuation went here, and why headings and margins had to be there. After finishing my first couple papers it began to make sense. Everything looked so clean, crisp and quite professional, if I do say so myself.
