Putting Graph into your paper • You graph cannot be bigger than a ½ page (and it does not count toward your 6 page requirement) • No you cannot just copy and paste the graph at the end and call it a day. • You want to choose wisely where to insert your graph. Look at where the question fits best in your research. • You must write about your graph in your paper. Which means when you insert it you either 1.
