In apa 6th edition, do you write the title above the abstract or below it before your introduction?

I am writing a paper. In all my other papers, following APA format, you need to put your title on top of the first page above your introduction. My professor wants us to now to use an abstract and am curious where you would put the title. Before or after the abstract. If I put it after the abstract, its closer to the bottom of the page, which looks odd. And I don't think you're supposed to put it before the abstract. Is the abstract to be on a separate page maybe?In apa 6th edition, do you write the title above the abstract or below it before your introduction?
Using APA you have a title page that is one page, separate from all the rest. If an Abstract is required, the abstract is page two (2) of your essay. The third page starts your essay with the intro paragraph and so on..



Title Page

Abstract page

Essay Page 1 through the conclusion page.

So if your teacher, professor told you to do it differently then use the APA guide and do it that way.

my teacher requires us to put the abstract below the title, but like the others have said, it really depends for different teachers.

All professors are different when I did one before I out my title above the abstract. The prof. Didn't mark it down. You should ask him or flip a coin (that was a joke)
