The explanation can comprise of your perception, factual facts, relevant data, impacts or repercussions etc concerning the written topic. If you are supplying any form of data for explanation then do remember that it should be authentic. Likewise, examples and instances should be realistic and should hold genuineness of facts.

4. The introduction of essay has to be interesting, crisp, stylized and invigorating in nature. It should arise a strong feeling of excitement and anticipation about your essay. You can start the essay with a quote, interesting dialogue to draw the attention of the reader. Do not use too many quotes as it may kill the gist of the discussion. Your good vocabulary and grammatical skills will be measured and so use your words appropriately with proper punctuation.


5. The body of the essay should be properly structured. The proper flow of words should be maintained throughout with informative facts and statistical data. The body of the essay should never sound monotonous but should be engaging. Don’t beat around the bushes with irrelevant thoughts and facts but stay connected to the discussion. Do remember that body of the essay should signify your perception and so it should be presented appropriately


6. You should never sound like “diplomatic” in your writing. The examiner is more interested in your knowledge, perception about the subject. Your favoring and non-favoring should look intellectually smart and not diplomatic.
