To be precise, suppose u have obtained all the results, decided what all u are going to put in the paper & also written a sort of rough draft. Now after that how much time did u take to just write the final version of the paper? I am asking this because I im in the process of doing this painful part & am taking a lot of time (figures, supplementary material & a lot of LAZYNESS.)Parthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280650735019731186.post-48957996058490023142013-09-19T02:51:47.344+02:002013-09-19T02:51:47.344+02:00It's different for everybody, of course, but I...It's different for everybody, of course, but I hope this gives you a first idea :)Eva Lantsoghthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06038354550224140273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4280650735019731186.post-74673350014167073692013-09-16T13:32:26.359+02:002013-09-16T13:32:26.359+02:00Thank you so much for this post.
