Main Body of the Essay

After your introduction, you will move on to the Expansion of your essay.

Step - 1

Start by expanding the first heading of the outline.

Step - 2

One heading may have length as long as you can manage it within the time. For example you have 7 main headings in your heading then, you can give 2 to 2.5 pages (depends upon the size of your writing and words per page as well). And also if you have very strong arguments about a certain heading you can elongate it too. And for those arguments where you feel like lacking the depth knowledge, then it is better to write less and be superficial rather than incorporating a wrong justification. Only slightly touch it.

Step-3

Try to explain all the headings by arguments in your essay step wise. It will be more beautiful if you keep the order of te outline. It will make your essay coherent.

Step-4

In this way you will unlock all the headings of the outline and then step-wise
lock them back. It should be such that if you start writing one argument, discuss it, narrate it, expand it to the required length, justify it with solid reasons and then re-confirm it and then move towards the next heading.


Step-5

You must arrive at the conclusion of the essay after having discussed all the outline headings (ideally) when there are 20 minutes left at the least. If you feel like running out of time, then you can shorten some of the arguments of your essay. But be aware, without conclusion, your essay stands no where.

Step-6

Conclusion

Conclusion is not Suggestion. Always remember it.

In conclusion, no new argument should be added. You will just sum up the arguments and justification to support your stance in the conclusion and here your justifications should resonate the essay topic and should re-confirm it. This is must part of essay. You can give your own perception as well. But never add something new in the conclusion. Conclusion never means suggestions. Here you just re-confirm your essay topic or the stance you have maintained in the essay. Here you will support all your essay. This is a backdoor of the essay from where you exit.

Its length should be ideally less than introductory para more ideally one half of your introduction in length. It should be concise and to the point.

In conclusion, you show the examiner that you are confident on yourself and you re-confirm yourself.

Before starting your conclusion, do write the words, "in the end", "to conclude" etc etc.


Also it is inappropriate to start your conclusion suddenly. It should be smooth in the essay. It should not look like in essay that you were arguing and justifying and abruptly you realized that oh my God......! only five minutes are left. And you stop your arguments and right after that para you straight away write "To conclude"...........just like a car was moving at the speed of 40Km/hour and suddenly it stopped and took a 180 degree U-Turn.

You will bring the reader of the essay slowly towards the end of the essay. Your outline should be such that your last 2 or at least one heading is like a closure of the essay. It would help you keeping to the track. You will systematically move to the conclusion yourself. The reader will assess himself that its now heading towards the closure.

Transition from Essay Body to Conclusion should be smooth, coherent, in order and must come as a gradual step in essay. It should feel like gradually going the stairs instead of a jump from the top of the roof. It should look like a part of the essay and a part of gradual descending towards the conclusion. It should not be like a misfit brick in the wall.


How to make arguments?

Each headline has to be discussed as an argument developing. Your argument should ideally be Justified, logical, solid, relevant and comprehensively connected with the essay topic. It can be justified with references to any surveys if possible and if general in form should consist of solid reasons.

How to make an argument?
Approach should be from General to Specific.

For example, You are writing an essay on " Causes of Terrorism" and in an argument you want to tell the examiner that how terrorism is caused by injustice to people. , you can say that

" Its a rule of thumb that true administration of justice brings peace in society".

It is a general Opening of the Heading "Injustice" in the Essay "Causes of Terrorism". This is a general statement and not a quote or saying. You can carve it on your own. Now you will connect it to the Essay topic. You can say

"ts a rule of thumb that true administration of justice brings peace in society. Justice brings the people under the ambit of law. The powerful become accountable for their deeds and when the powerful is answerable to law, a unique harmony prevails on such a society. The rich and the poor, the powerful and the powerless become equal.When they become equal in the eyes of law, reasons for any conflict are minimized because any deed of a person or group of persons to subjugate others is checked by the law. When such a justice is administered, people respect the law and they tend to obey laws as much as possible. When a weaker person gets his right from the court, he would never like to take guns and grenades in his hand and become a criminal to take revenge at his own. This only happens in those societies where conflicts arise due to non-existence of law and non-provision of proper justice. For example, (here give examples of some countries where human rights have been violated and terrorism is common). So no justice means no peace and no peace means war and war of the powerless against the powerful for his legitimate rights has been defined as the Terrorism in the modern world.Hence, non-provision of justice is a main cause of terrorism."


(Surely my English and knowledge is not that good. You can surely write more comprehensive than this). You can give justifications by quoting examples of those countries where justice exists and terrorism is not found and vice versa to strengthen your argument.)


You can use any kind of expansion which you think appropriate for you. The main aim was to share my meager knowledge about making arguments in an essay.

Arrow 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 coherent.
