[QUOTE="Andrei Radu, post: 191234, member: 36777"] Hey [USER=38365]@salari.sepideh[/USER] I definitely empathize with your struggles. It is quite difficult to know when you have done enough proofreading, as even after 3-4 checks I would still sometimes find a typo after I submitted the application. Unfortunately, I think the only way to minimize the risk of any errors is to do as many repeated checks as possible yourself. To maximize efficiency however I would advise you to [B]proofread at different times and in different environments[/B]. Instead of investing 50 minutes to do 5 checks one after the other immediately after you finished your final draft, I think you should try to do 5 different checks of 10 minutes each at different moments over the span of 1-2 days. You would be surprised how many more mistakes you identify when you can truly look at it with "a fresh pair of eyes". [/QUOTE]
