Have you submitted it to your teacher?

Iereiy's second sentence says "In fact I had submitted this a week before". I took that to mean "I submitted this a week ago". As long as it's been submitted, it doesn't really matter if the OP has had it back with the teacher's comments yet.

I still consider the thread title incorrect and would replace 'determine' with 'determining', 'which determines' or 'in', but I am not a teacher.

"We don't help with homework or assignments that are going to be submitted for marking or grading..."

Since you are not helping me with homework or assignments that are going to be submitted for marking or grading, so I don't think your above quote is an issue anymore. I am just looking for a second opinion. Thank you.

Everyone is required to complete at least 10 years of studies, it differs between countries.
I consider it a comma splice because they are two independent clauses, but I am not a teacher.
