Overall, I didn't have too bad of an experience writing the paper. My teacher dispersed our deadlines (eg. having different sections due every two weeks or so) which helped keep me on top of my work and not rushing last minute. While writing the more general stuff (intro/conclusion, less actual data analysis and more setting the scene) I constantly referenced other papers that received the highest possible score. This helped me understand what I needed to talk about and how to state it. I also had the rubric constantly open next to me as I wrote and often stopped to compare what I needed to have to what I wrote. Though it might make the paper a bit boring to read, sometimes you just gotta be upfront and directly state what DP wants you to say (eg. "The theory this experiment is referencing is...").
