I compile my code and the abstract shows up before the titlepage, but I want it after the title page.
\documentclass[12pt, oneside]{report}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
\geometry{letterpaper}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage{indentfirst}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\title{Thesis}
\author{by Me}
\date{April 15th, 2013}
\begin{document}
\begin{abstract}
stuff and nonsense
\end{abstract}
\maketitle
\tableofcontents
The following code seems to work well. \begin{document} should be before the title.
\documentclass[12pt, oneside]{report}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{setspace}
\usepackage{indentfirst}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\begin{document}
\title{Thesis}
\author{by Me}
\date{April 15th, 2013}
\maketitle

\title, see question: Should I place \title, \author, \date in the preamble or after \begin{document}?.
