I've done 30 pages as well, it's easier when it's something you want to do.

If I had it planned out and knew my sources and such before hand, this would take me about 5-6 hrs. Back in HS I used to do like a half page outline, but once I got to college that got into 2-3 pages, that I'd usually work on right after they gave us the assignment, then I'd spend a few hrs doing some research online when I got home, so the outline would grow to 4-6 pages. After that it just kind of writes itself.

5000 words is nothing. That's like 30 minutes tops. Sixty if I don't know the subject too well.

I've written on topics before and the words fucking fly by. I'm the type of person to go way above the word limit simply because I was getting way too serious about it.

That's nonstop 167 or 84 words per minute respectively. 1000 or 500 keystrokes average per minute nonstop, assuming no backspace. Professional typists work around 70 WPM or 330 keystrokes per minute. I call bullshit on you.

I don't exactly time myself you know. I very much doubt it is literally thirty minutes.

Yeah but claiming you can work at over double the efficiency of a professional is way too far out there.

Spidey, you also have to take into account the time spent researching the topic. Reading a few books and articles about it can take a few days. Anybody can write 10 pages in 30 minutes if they just talk out of their ass and make shit up, you're not special. But researching, then coming back to the books you've read to check if the data is correct, making citacions, cross referencing it with other authors in case there are differences in opinions that you should mention... THAT is what writing a paper means. Not writing out of your ass and taking quotes and data out of context.
