    Depends here also, because I have time on my hands and tend to get bored so I read more and find ways to occupy my time, even if that means finishing assignments ahead of schedule.

    How can this be rewritten?

    Did you compose that sentence? Or is it from a story or is an assignment? (It's a horrible sentence.)

    Is it part of an essay or story, or is it floating all alone somewhere?

    What is the context?

    It is an answer to a discussion question assignment.

    This is the question:
    Are you the first to finish, but not necessarily the one turning in the most accurate work?

    This is my current answer:

    I can improve your answer, but it doesn't answer the question posed.

    There are actually two ideas presented --

    1) Are you the first to finish (or do you finish later)?

    2) If you finish early, how accurate is your work? Have you given it the attention it deserves? If you finish later, does that mean you have spent time ensuring your work is accurate?

    It varies depending on the amount of time that I have as it varies from day to day depending on what has to be done in my daily life concerning my mothers estate,as she just passed away at the end of January of this year.

    And what about the accuracy and value of your work and how it fits with the speed you finish projects?

    Normally, I am very accurate. Some things are harder for me to grasp than others.
