PLANNING YOUR  ESSAY
Why should you make a plan for your essays? Why ‘waste time’ doing
that when you are in a pressured examination situation or pushed to
produce a coursework assignment?
Answer: Because it will pay off in the long run in terms of the relevance,
organisation and clarity of your essay. 
Think about occasions when in everyday conversation you are asked
your opinion about something or about how to do something. Isn’t your
answer more likely to be well-received when you give the matter some
thought before you jump in with both feet?
It is the same with essays, whether they are for coursework assignments
or timed answers in classroom or examination situations. A little prior
thought which is transformed into brief notes will pay dividends.
