How to select a topic in CSS Essay paper?.

It is very crucial point to select the right topic out of given 10 topics because once you select it you will have to write an essay of at least 2500+ words on the same topics.

Step 1

Brain Storm your mind about the topics and judge how much relevant data have you in your memory to write it down.

Step 2

Never opt a topic in which you do not know the meaning of even a single word.

Step 3

Do not go through the paper too quickly. You can cause yourself unrest and that will reduce your confident and that is surely not required on the day. Read the topics slowly and try to evaluate the meaning of 1st topic to the best of your abilities and then move on the next and then the next. Keep your calm and hold your nerves and if you feel a bit nervous take some deep breaths and remove your eyes for a moment or two and see around to make yourself comfortable. Never reach a decision that Ohhhhhhhhhhhh it too difficult and my CSS has ended or Oh Wowww i can write all the topics and i know every essay. In both the conditions, you have to keep a check yourself whether you are too early onto it. Both perception are wrong and can be lethal and prove a death blow.

Step 4

If you come the assesment that you can wirte an essay on more than one topic or even more than select your essay as under

Make a Rough Brain Storming Outline of both the essays which you think have a tie and then opt the one which you think better. Do it on Page 25 of your answer sheet.

Step 5
Make a outline and start writing essay.

Now you should close your Question Paper because it sometimes happens that students feel obstruction of thoughts at the mid of the paper. That is very normal. To write an essay of 2500+ words without making a single stroke of pen dwindled out of the scope of the topic can make you OUT of the competition. So you can have your moments during the essay paper. Obstruction of brain occurs sometimes because you are surely in a pressure. If at this crucial time, your question paper is open and you find that Oh My God..........! I opted the wrong topic and i should have slected that topic. That is very dangerous situation. More dangerous than the obstruction of thoughts. So close the question paper of fold it such that only your selected topic remains to your eyes. This should be like Burning the boats behind.

Finding the Key word in a topic

Evaluate each topic regarding

Geographical Scope
Time / Era Scope
Segment of society of scope

For example

"Future of democracy in Pakistan is bright"

Here Time is Future
Segment of attention is all the democratic institutions / Govt / other state organs

Geographical Scope is Pakistan

So you would write the essay about the future of democracy in Pakistan. There is no need to mention all the Govts since 1947 upto now. Your focus is Future (Time Scope). You can give brief account in your expansion that how furture of Democracy is going to be bright. You can argue that in past Military intervened etc etc but no need of writing 4-5 pages of history of democracy. It can ruin your essay.

If the Topic is

"democracy in Pakistan"

Now time scope is not given
Geographically Pakistan

So here you can discuss as to why democracy in Pakistan is not so strong ans then also lead the essay from past to future but keep a balance between both.

What should not be done in an essay?

Do not try to insert heavy words at the cost of scope of the essay. Some time we know a heavy word and intend to FIT it forcefully in the essay even it is not necessary. Then to insert such a word we often carve a sentence to FIT that word. Sometimes it affects the spirit of the essay and instead of making a good impact, they; being misfit, annoy the reader. Examiner very quickly spot such efforts of inserting heaving words.

Be simple and natural. Do not try to stuff your essays with heavy words. Essay is a test of writing skills of English whether you are able to convey your thoughts through pen or not. Insertion of heavy words is not the requirement. Yes, if your English is that good and advanced and you are well equipped with vocabulary, your writing style will tell itself to the reader and then it will be coheren
