<p>Hi,
I recently submitted a research paper for the Siemens competition and I realized that I had a few typing mistakes that I looked over when proofreading (i.e repeating a word). I also forgot to double space the references page. Will these mistakes cost me a lot?</p>
<p>i doubt it</p>
<p>lol me too</p>
<p>Those mistakes would either cost you everything or nothing, as requirements don’t factor into judging. I doubt your project would be disqualified due to this but I would call to make sure.</p>
<p>^ It hurts you. I entered Intel last year with a couple of typos on my research paper, and I’m very sure that’s the reason why I got nothing.</p>
<p>Typos are after all taken very seriously at this level… But you’ll have to wait and see. At least you’ll have Intel.</p>
<p>i don’t think it should be a big deal. just make sure to proofread it before submitting to Intel!</p>
