Poly count 3964 , 218 nGones n Tri's
18 % nGones n Tri's.
I'm not very good at it.

 

You'll get better if you keep at it, like anything else. 

All quads is always possible, it just takes planning. If you're block modeling the traditional way, just stick to very basic forms and only add edge loops when you absolutely need them. Use diamonds and 5-point stars to redirect edgeflow. 

At very low res - say, under 2K - you can "cheat" in some areas by using  tris, as they will become quads when subdivided. 

The model I've been working on is 33,890K right now, 100% quads. It is possible.

If you want to create a new thread and post screen shots of your model, I'll look at your topology and might be able to show you where you can make changes to reduce the ngons and tris.

Thanks for the offer ,most kind.
I know your school only accepts 99.99% perfection.
If I get 70% I'm good, if I get 80% I'm ecstatic.
