Which writing tools or services make research easier for university assignments?
I’m in the middle of prepping for a midterm project, and honestly, research is what slows me down the most. I spend half my time digging for credible sources and the other half trying to keep track of citations. Last semester I pulled an all-nighter because I couldn’t organize notes from three different articles, and I promised myself I’d find better tools before things got this hectic again. So I’m curious — what do you all use to make the research part of university papers less painful and more structured?
The nicest part about browsing threads like this is getting fresh ideas without feeling pressured to follow any one approach. Sometimes I just scroll through, pick out one or two suggestions, and test them slowly until something sticks. It’s kind of like rearranging a desk — a small change can suddenly make the whole space easier to work in, even if you don’t replace everything at once.
