GirlGroupTrash 823 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 In one of my classes, I had to put my MLA citations at the bottom of the page. For most classes, they are on a separate piece of paper that doesn't count towards the page count. I have never used APA before and probably won't ever because I'm a Journalism major and English minor XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowhere Boy 2,431 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I don't count my works cited page as a real page. If I have to write a 7 page paper, then technically it'll have like 8 because of the Works Cited page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guava 6,874 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 As a science major we were always told to include them. It was the page count with everything included (minus reference and appendix pages) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cherry yuuki 458 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Exclude, we've always been told to exclude them, at least in the classes I've been in. APA still confuses me, I've only done it once, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
