I love writing papers, to me they are quite easy.
I sat down one time for 5 hours and wrote a 20 page paper, all at once. Easy A that time.
Essays are my life and blood in school.

it's all about knowing how to BS it so the teacher hear's what he/she wants to hear.

Hen 20 pages in 5 hours. You definitly arent a history major. Hehe. The amount of research time per page of a decent paper is the hard part for me. I am a great paper writer and I can do like 7 pages proprly researched in 5 hours and thats at my fastest and with minimum research. I wish I could be an english major and write from the heart, so much faster.

I actually have a double major in Psychology and History. I am the kind of person who can remember crazy crap pretty well. I had a history class about medieval england, had an essay final, I filled 6 of the smaller blue books front and back in 2 hours, and I write pretty small.
I am a pretty good BSer also, but I have a knack for remembering insane stuff and then just spitting it out all at once. Many people have learned never to get into a verbal argument with me because if I know anything on the subject, I know everything on it, and I never get into arguments that I do not know what I am talking about. My GF hates it.

I can remember stuff pretty well, but when you're writing history papers you have to use proper citation for your facts though. My problem is looking through my sources and finding my citations fast enough.

The secret of writing papers is to try to make the subject applicable to several classes.
ie...
"The History of Blue Music" with a few edits could be used for:
a general topic English paper, American History class, and Music class.

Whatever you do, don't buy a paper. 60 Minutes did a pice last night regarding the UVA cheating scandal and papers for sale via the Internet. Damn, when I was in college, we didn't have such options (not that I had the cash to buy them). As it was they were generally typed on typewriters (not much computer access from 83-87).

i hate papers too. writing one of my final papers eer. It has tto be on something i have a split opinion on with moral or ethical issues. So things like abortion or the death penalty. Problem is i have an opinion on everything. I have written 3 or so pages on several things and find out my opinion is pretty evident. it sucks. it needs to be 4-6 pages total.
