How to make a really SPECTACULAR essay?

Question

I have to write an essay for this institute i got nominated for. It's for really smart people, and only 130 out of like 4,000 are accepted. It has to be less than 250 words, and I want it to bring out my best qualities, what sould I mention?

Answer 1

First, have an amazing intorducatary paragraph to catch whoever is reading its attention.

Second, write your thesis statement. So if your were writing about how exercise is healthier than watching tv you would start off with: Running, compared to watching tv helps you to : 1, 2, 3.
Then your third, paragraph would be about topic 1, fourth paragraph about topic 2, and so on.

Third, Before your conclusion, which sums up for whole essay, restate your thesis statement,

Correct spellnig and puncutation will help make your essay be even better.

Answer 2

Oh. I thought from the topic you meant an essay like an English essay, or a Science essay, where I'd suggest the best thing to do would be to research the topic really well. But this is different, and I'm not sure exactly how to answer.

However, I will give one suggestion. You never in your decription say exatly what the essay topic is. I'd suggest adding that as additional information, and if possible, copy down the exact wording of what it's asking you to write about.

One really easy way to add "spectacular" to your essay is to make sure that there are no spellling errors - your question has an error or two!!

Secondly, be sure that the facts that you mention are accurate and up to date. The quality of the information/opinions you use requires your study and your passion so choose to use stuff that you are passionate about - ice hockey, or your violin, whatever. Passion will show through the writing. And readers love passion.

Thirdly, have an adult (if that would not disqualify you) with good writing skills read and critique it - not to CHANGE it but to assure you that the work is thoughtfully laid out and grammatically correct.

And then turn it in and pray for good results. You can do this. <><
