Scribbr is style agnostic. Student papers follow a variety of style guides, and Scribbr editors must be able to adapt their editing style accordingly.<\/p>\n

We don’t expect applicants to know the ins and outs of Scribbr’s specific style of editing right away. As long as your sample edits are appropriate for an academic context (and consistent, of course), that will suffice.<\/p>\n

If you do have questions about a specific grammar or style point, Scribbr\u2019s Knowledge Base<\/a>, the Purdue OWL<\/a>, and the APA Style Blog<\/a> are all excellent resources.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","faq_category":[19548,19549],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"What style guide should I use?<\/title>\n <!-- Mirrored from www.scribbr.com/wp-json/wp/v2/qa_faqs/65398 by HTTrack Website Copier/3.x [XR/YP'2000] --> <!-- Added by HTTrack --><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" /><!-- /Added by HTTrack --> <meta name=\"description\" content=\"Scribbr is style agnostic.
