Look over your work and check that your key argument is clearly presented and explained with evidence, revising and redrafting if necessary. Your introduction and conclusion should introduce/summarise your key points. Paragraphs should be of consistent length (for an essay or dissertation between 150-250 words as a rough guideline) and each have a clear purpose or point.
Make sure that your assignment is formatted as specified in your assignment brief/as requested by your tutor and that the same font, quotation style etc is used throughout.
Try reading your work out loud to check sentences make sense and are not too long. It can be difficult to see your own mistakes when you are immersed in the writing - take a break of a day or so before final checks (if possible!) and/or ask a trusted friend to give feedback. Please remember that although ASK can provide advice on improving your writing, they do not offer a proof-reading service.
Look over your references and bibliography one more time to ensure that they are all correct and up to date to avoid plagiarism.
