<p>My teacher said there might be some MLA formatting questions on the exam. Does anyone know what these would look like if you’ve seen them on past exams? For example, I think there maybe questions referring to footnotes, underlining vs quotes, etc, but I’m not sure.</p>
<p>This is very unlikely.</p>
<p>Really? She said post 2004 exams had 3 or 4 of them. I guess it’s nothing to worry about, then.</p>
<p>Perhaps there was a misunderstanding either on her part or on yours. I can almost guarantee that one of the 20th century or later passages WILL have footnotes and that there will be questions on the footnotes. So you will have to be able to interpret the footnotes, which are not always in exact MLA format (although similar).</p>
<p>Sometimes the footnotes include citations (in MLA format, of course). And you may be asked questions about the citations in the footnotes.</p>
