  • We hope to cover at least 20 pages during the internship but you have mentioned less than ten.

About this item I enlarged the pages, in all there are 10 in my timeline, I'm not feeling to put 20 pages because that would mean 1 and a half pages a week I don't know if I can tell you how it's my first time on a project. but I will do my best to make the most pages, do you think putting 10 pages my proposal will not be accepted?
