  • Correct Figure or Data to be included

If you are writing an essay on something factual then make sure that you use only that information including data or figures that are factual or correct.

  • First paragraph should be brief

A brief introduction to be given in the first paragraph of the essay. Just an outline of the topic can be explained.

  • Sticking to the Word Limit is important

Always try to stick to the word limit, no matter even if you have extensive knowledge about the subject/topic.

  • Be neutral for few topics
