Revision Checklists

Step-by-step checks for improving a draft before final proofreading.

Revise in layers

Revision works best when it moves from big concerns to small concerns. Start with the argument and organization before spending time on commas or individual word choices.

  • Confirm the thesis answers the assignment prompt.
  • Check that each paragraph has one clear purpose.
  • Save proofreading for the final pass.
