kicking myself in the ass for this right now. i was lifting one essay i used in a previous secondary to place in another essay for a different secondary and noticed some grammatical errors, ie incorrect punctuation. how big of a deal is one or two typos in a secondary

before you start dropping "you should really proof your secondaries", i do in fact proof all my secondaries. it just so happens that when you start doing 20 secondaries, its easy to make mistakes.

This has been addressed many times. If i were you I'd search "grammatical errors". Everyone is going to tell you, don't stress since it's too late. Some might say it matters. Most will say it doesn't matter. In the end, schools have different preferences. More than likely, they won't see it at the rate they read it. I don't know why you would find this deserving of a new thread. You couldn't possibly think you were alone in making this mistake.
 
If by punctuation error you mean " I will be an asset to the medical establishment," then okay. But if " I will be an asset to the medical establishment?" then I understand your pain.
In all seriousness, a little typo or error won't mean the death of your app. It's understandable that small errors can be made here and there. I'd be more worried if your app were poorly written or constructed.
 
Excuses, Excuses.

When you are a surgeon are you going to say "Well, I took out the wrong organ, but it is easy to make mistakes when you're caring for twenty patients?"

Tell me you're being sarcastic. That's not constructive at all and not even a good analogy.
 
It is an EXCELLENT analogy. Probably the best ever.
 
i can own up to the fact that i made mistakes, no excuses. the next 8-10 years will be in training-get used to making mistakes and owning them.
