Why do we use MLA formatting? It’s quite simple: this formatting style creates a system for writers to reference sources they use in essays and on works cited pages, as well as for formatting manuscripts in general.

MLA formatting also increases a writer’s credibility because it creates a relationship of accountability between the writer and his or her material. And perhaps more importantly, it protects them from accusations of plagiarism.

It’s a simple fact: better study methods and employing particular study strategies yield higher exam scores.

Reviewing the material you’ve written and read during class will help solidify it in your mind. Cramming the night before an exam isn’t a good method for test preparation. Lecture notes, textbooks and study guides should be out in front of you as you begin to study. Writing a summary of the most relevant information during your study period will help memorization.

The works cited page should remain on a separate page. All entries should be double spaced, and margins of no more or less than one inch should exist at the top, sides and bottoms. The Works Cited page should be titled ‘Works Cited’ and should not include quotation marks, bold text style or in any way effected (except for capitalization. Each entry line should flush left, with all subsequent related lines indented ½ inch.
