A 15 page paper on Richard I and the third crusade. Problem was, I also had a 10 page paper due for Modern Japan and another 5 pager on Progressivism all due the same week. Worst few weeks of my life, academically speaking.

I think I can top that. In a two week period in my second year of university, I had to complete the following papers:

20 pages on the James Joyce's Ulysses as one of the most influential novels of the modernist era
15 pages on American nuclear policy from Kennedy to the Reagan era as an extension of the realist paradigm
15 pages on the development of Darwinian thought from the Reformation to the beginning of the 20th century
20 pages on the question "What is history?"

And I had to redo my portfolio for a two semester course of Fiction and poetics(Creative writing is what it should have been called).

That was a LOT of writing.

How do y'all talk about topics in like 15+ pages? That's a lot of information to dicifer.

One thing that helps for me is frequently using the spell checker. Wouldn't want to make a stupid spelling mistake now!

im a sophmore in high school and for my history semester project i had to write a 5 page paper, i forgot about it and searched for on on the internet found one that was 6 pages long printed that out and got an A on my paper lol..........i know im bad just dont tell anyone haha.

You may have gotten away with it once, but I wouldn't do that again. Especially in college because they google everything and you will get caught, and you will get expelled. It's especially not worth it for a 5 page paper, I could write one of those in a half hour.

My longest paper was my senior research project in college on salary controls in professional sports that topped out around 45 pages, I believe. There were a bunch of tables tacked on at the end that probably got it over 50 pages. It sucks trying to staple a paper that big...

I also wrote a short story/novel that was over 100 pages in Word. I didn't like the final result and actually deleted it. I have a hard time maintaining my focus over such a great length of pages.

At my school most of the teachers use turnitin.com and you can't cheat at all with that ****.
