It’s that time of the year, the teacher is waving an assignment sheet in her hand, the atmosphere outside of your class is getting darker and darker and you can barely breathe when the teacher says “You have to write research essay…” and you blind out. Yes it’s the research essay work, where you forget your weeks sleep and go in to a huge map-less trek of the unknown. It’s a mind blowing work and you end up in the 9-5 work life, with only a coffee break as your food substitute.

I won’t say that writing this type of college essay is going to be easy, but you can make it less difficult for yourself if you remember the first rule; working early will save you from being the last. If the teacher gives you the college essay topic, then you can ask your teacher’s help, many students don’t go for guidance regarding the topic and end up very confused by the end of the week. It’s your first priority that you must better understand and comprehend the topic. If the teacher is not helpful then ask any senior for help or contact another teacher. If you have the option to choose a topic for yourself, then you can pick an approved thesis and apply in different circumstances, like the past EU trade with the South American trade and show the results. It will give a head start and plenty of fuel for your college essay as that thesis would require only a little research and brainstorming.

The very first A of your college essay is getting the 4W and an H (What, where, who, why and how). The point of confusion starts here where the students get all the information about the topic but none of the answers that is required in your college essay. For example, how terrorism has affected the stock market, why it has, and what are its statistics; or does it require the past data.

The very first thing you need to do is, (must I say it) research. Yes it’s a very T2 thing (tedious and tiring) but you have to do it. So anyway let’s begin our quest.

After the RBD, researching, brainstorming and drafting up your college essay you get to the final stage. Whether it’s a persuasive, narrative, expository essay etc, your method will still be the same.

The introduction is all about the background of the topic and you will explain in the first paragraph what you intend to explain, that will give your reader a kick start and will be able to comprehend the topic.

After the introduction come up to the main body paragraph where you use the format of writing a college essay, the citations, excerpts, quotes, etc. Remember the 3C’s, Clarification, Continuation and Connectivity. All of your hard work will go to waste of you add A and connect it later to D. Make a statement, add a citation, then move to the next point, add a citation and so it goes on.

In the conclusion, you end it with an excerpt from a work, or give proved facts to make your college essay strong.
