The points you are losing to formatting are the cheapest ones to get back
Most US nursing, education, psychology and social work programs grade to APA 7, and most rubrics carry a formatting criterion worth real points. It is the one part of a grade that is entirely mechanical, which means it is entirely fixable.

It is more than the reference list, and that is where points go
Students tend to think of APA as a citation format. Rubrics do not. The formatting criterion covers the title page, the heading hierarchy and how many levels you are allowed to use, in-text citation form including how it changes with three or more authors, the reference list and its hanging indents, table and figure numbering with their notes underneath, and how appendices are labeled and referred to in the text.
Each of those is a rule with a definite right answer, which is exactly why it is worth buying. Nothing here is a matter of judgment, nothing requires understanding your argument, and a document can be brought fully compliant without a single word of your content changing.
It is also the cheapest way to fix a whole document. If your faculty comments are about citations, layout and reference formatting rather than about the writing, this is a fraction of the price of an edit and it will fix all of it.
- Title page, running head where required, and page numbering
- Heading levels applied correctly and consistently
- In-text citations checked against the reference list, both ways
- Tables, figures, notes and appendices to APA 7 specification
What comes back to you
On any document, any length
- Your document, fully formatted, with changes tracked
- Every reference cross-checked against every in-text citation
- A list of sources cited but missing from the reference list
- A note of anything we could not verify, rather than a guess
- Not one word of your content altered
How formatting works
Send the document and the style
The file, the style your program requires, and its template or style sheet if it has one. Program requirements beat the published guide.
You get a fixed quote
Priced on length. Usually turned around within 24 hours, because none of this work depends on reading your argument.
The document is brought to style
Every element, with changes tracked so you can see exactly what moved. Your content is not touched.
You get the discrepancy list
Sources cited but not referenced, references never cited, and anything we could not verify. Those are yours to resolve, because they are content.
Priced by the size of the document
Formatting is mechanical work done carefully. The rate follows how much of it there is, not how hard the subject is.

Formatting is the cheapest set of points on any paper to get back, because none of it depends on the argument. If you want the writing itself looked at, that is proofreading and editing, priced separately.
Formatting changes the layout, never the argument
- We do not add, remove or alter your content.
- We do not add sources to your reference list. We tell you what is missing.
- We do not invent citation details we cannot verify.
- Every change is tracked and you approve it.
- This service touches presentation only, which is why it is the least ambiguous thing we sell.
A reference list with invented details is a fabrication problem rather than a formatting one, and it is treated far more seriously by an integrity panel. Where we cannot verify a source, we flag it for you. Read the full policy.
Frequently Asked Questions
We format what is there and cross-check it both ways: every in-text citation against the reference list and every reference against the text. Where a citation has no matching reference, or a detail cannot be verified, we flag it. We do not invent the missing information.
Considerably, and for a lot of students it is the service they actually need. If your feedback is about citations, layout and reference formatting rather than about the writing, this fixes all of it for a fraction of the price.
APA 7 as standard, plus MLA 9 and Chicago. If your program has its own template or style sheet, send it, because program requirements override the published guide and they are what you are graded against.
Yes, including the table of contents, lists of tables and figures, and a whole-manuscript consistency pass. Send your program's template with it if there is one.
Usually within 24 hours for standard documents, because none of this depends on reading your argument. Longer manuscripts are quoted with a turnaround when you enquire.
