Raw vs JPEG

I am student in a photography class in college. I've always used RAW images but I was curious what everyone else's preferences are for printing and editing.

We just had a lengthy discussion on the very same subject here: Pros and Cons of Shooting in RAW as a beginner

Maybe the OP was set the same assignment?

JPEG has advantages for storage because small file size, but it's best NOT to edit JPEG if your intent is to print from that file because editing degrades JPEG. If you want to edit a file it's best to use a lossless application.

I think this question is best to ask the professor. It's his job isn't it. Unless you have other reasons on why you ask here. If you do have reasons you can't ask the teacher be frank with us.

OP, this is not a question which appears best suited for "Black and White Forum"

 

To assist you better, what is the exact assignment that you were set?
