Question about research paper editing vs proofreading

[EditingCoach]

I've been grappling with imposter syndrome and feeling like I need some extra support in my research paper writing journey. Right now, I'm knee-deep in Advanced Statistics, Research Design, and Doctoral Seminar courses which are kicking my butt! I've been considering getting some outside help with editing and proofreading my research papers to ensure they meet the high standards expected at this level. Does anyone have experience with using professional services for this kind of support? How do you differentiate between editing and proofreading services? Any recommendations on reliable resources that cater to academic writing specifically? Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks a ton!

I personally enjoy writing in APA style. It's super organized and straightforward, which fits my analytical and data-driven nature. Plus, the in-text citations and reference list are a breeze to handle.

However, I've dabbled in MLA and Chicago too - gotta keep those options open, right? Each style has its quirks, so it really depends on the assignment requirements. By the way, have you ever used any research paper editing or proofreading services? I'm thinking of trying one out to polish up my next paper. Any recommendations or experiences to share?
