First Year and Edits

Post by Anonymous User » Sun Feb 07, 2021 2:03 am

First year who just started a few months ago. Sometimes, I get work back and it is heavily edited. And last time, I got an assignment back, and the midlevel explicitly told me she didn't think a redline was useful because it was changed so much. I looked at the drafts, and most of the changes were stylistic and nothing really substantive. Should I be worried about the amount of editing my work gets?
