writing
Essay writing is as much a craft as an art. While art depends for its
expression on inspiration, craft requires preparation, apprenticeship
and systematic hard work. The evaluation of the essays written by
the candidates in the main examination takes into account:
. Comprehension
. Originalit of thought
. Clarity of expression
. Integrated thinking with assimilation of ideas.
A good essay writer should have not only sensitivity and feelings,
but also a sound vocabulary and command over grammar of the
language. A rich vocabulary is quite essential to write effectively. It
imparts power and force to the words used in writing.
One should also try to cultivate a lucid writing skill. Lucid style has
flow and is smooth to read. Difficult words should not be used out of
context and, at best, avoided. Logical and effective writing is a
matter of training. “Anyone who does the writing practice over a
period of time surely hones his writing skill making it effective.” No
guidebook can turn you into a good essay writer. Only you can do it
yourself.
Analytical and logical abilities are also expected in the writing of the
candidates.
Broadly speaking all the topics within the essay paper may be
divided into two categories:
Then you should elaborate those ideas or points for next two hours.
This is the most crucial part. A good essay has three essential parts:
. Introduction or beginning should be short and simple. It must
give the examiner a feel of things to come. Avoid taking any stand
on opinion-based topics in the
introduction itself. Let the mystery unfold itself. Normally, it
should not exceed one tenth of the total words of an essay.
. Then comes the body of the essay. It should be in form of
paragraphs to elaborate the theme. Elaboration of the ideas should
accompany appropriate examples
in support of it. With each change of point, change the
paragraph. However, there should be continuity and coherence
while changing the paragraphs.
