A: What is an essay?

Essay is a type of composition that describes the term idea or concept an essay is structured
and formal piece of writing that presents a coherent argument or perspective on a specific topic It
is characterized by a systematic organization of thoughts, supported by evidence and analysis
Essay is a short piece of writing on a particular subject often expressing personal views in a
school test an essay is a written answer that includes information and discussion, usually to test
how well the student understands the subject an essay is a piece of academic writing generally
between 500 and 5000 words long The word essay originally meant a first attempt or practice
which perhaps suggests some kind of provisional exploration Essays are an intellectual
exploration of a topic involving looking at different arguments and evidence and developing the
writer’s perspective An essay is more discursive than say a report example the points are
developed in more depth and the language may be a little less concise Typically it will consist of
a number of paragraphs that are not separated by subheadings or broken up by bullet points
However some lecturers may allow or encourage subdivisions and headings, as this can help
both the writer and the reader with the structure of the content. In that case an essay may begin to
look more like the preferred format of some journal articles Always consult your tutorial letter if
you are unsure about any points of style or presentation of your essay the purpose of writing an
academic essay is to provide written evidence of your ability to research a topic, weigh
arguments, organize your thoughts, express these thoughts in a logical, coherent and critical
manner, and reach conclusions which follow from the evidence and the arguments you put
forward. There will be a constraint on the number of words you can use so, inevitably, you need
to be selective about content. How to research, plan and write an essay requires a lot of practice,
and unfortunately no formula can guarantee good written work. There is no right or wrong way
of approaching an essay

coherent and critical topic weigh manner and reach conclusions which follow from the evidence

Although an essay does two main important things First it helps you share what you know
about topic in an organized way It is like talking on paper but in a formal way Second it makes
you better at thinking critical in essays you present your idea in an orderly manner and back
then up with evidence So it is not just about writing well it is also about getting better at
expressing your thoughts clearly to others he purposes narrows the focus by indicating whether
the writer wishes to express or explore ideas or actually exp argue about the topic lain or the
thesis sentence, claim, or main idea narrows the focus even farther. It is the sentence or sentences
which focuses the topic for the writer and the reader
