College Essay - How To Write One
College Essay - How To Write OneA college essay is not an academic essay. There are lots of different things that you should keep in mind if you are going to write a high school essay, so I want to share some tips with you.Most high school students are very familiar with the 'One-Sentence-Summary' essays that they use as summaries for their grades. These aren't what you want to do. You need to write a good essay, and this is very different from using a one-sentence-summary.First, you need to think about how you're going to organize your thoughts and ideas. Some people prefer to think of the essay as more of a diary entry than a report, so you want to make sure that you use the same format to group your thoughts.Organization is the key. It needs to be crystal clear and concise.Order is very important when writing an essay. Many times students who have really good written essays at the end of the school year have finished them just before the end of the year. By the time they give them to the professor, they're finished, but the end of the year papers have not been organized correctly, so there's no way for the professor to give them the proper grade.Now for the fun part, the college essay. If you want to make it easy for yourself, you can always rewrite the sections that you want to change. For example, instead of using, 'Sugar is not a diet aid', you could use 'Sugar has a number of side effects including dehydration, heart problems, depression, anxiety, and death'. This will make the sentence much shorter and more precise.There are lots of ways to do a college essay, but if you stick to these tips, you'll have no trouble writing a good one. Good luck!
