"In college I think it was a 1:1 as I was in the physics program where the research papers were more based on the experiments performed as were the research papers I wrote for my assistantship. In most of my other classes it was more heavily weighted…"

"I work with lots of different types of data and I practically never write anything like a paper one does in school. I do have to do "research" sometimes like when I had to understand geodetics and how a datum and projections work together.…"
