As I have stated in my earlier post. Practice writing for an hour daily. Now I am going to tell you some detail of how to carry out this exercise effectively.

Choose a topic, however simple it may be. For example you can pick 'Child Labour', write a paragraph first which contains only introduction and definition of child labour. In this paragraph discuss only the meaning I emphasise only the meaning of child labour. DO not indulge in describing its evils or giving your recommendations in that paragraph. That is the fundamental mistake which aspirants commit. After this write another paragraph in which write its evils, then recommendations in another and so on.

I hope by this exercise you will easily become able to write a good essay.

Brother I attempted "Freedom of speech should be limited". I do not remember the exact outline but that was an essay evenly distributed, simple in language and free of grammatical mistakes. Make your outline as self explanatory as possible. Do not present vague ideas in essay, be crystal clear in your approach. These days I am very much occupied by my job, my academy and my interview preparation. But as soon as I find some time I will certainly try to recall my complete outline and share with you people. In Sha Allah.

Remember me in your kind prayers.

Regards

I secured 47 marks in essay in css 2013. What I did , just presented a layman's point of view , furnished it with examples from our daily life and quoted news with focusing on my grammer. Expression was not much hifi.

Great that you got through this paper. Would you mind sharing your topic and outline if possible? have you prepared essays before the exams?

I think following versions would be correct.

Essay writing is not a difficult task if you understand the real purpose of essay.
OR
Essay writing is a difficult task unless you understand the real purpose of essay.


If you want to use UNLESS then you'll have to omit NOT, because Unless itself has negative connotation OR You'll have to use IF in place of UNLESS if you want to use NOT.
Correct me sister if I am wrong. I'm still learning from my seniors na.

You can give introduction of your essay in the start. This introduction can be a single paragraph or a sum of short paragraphs. Some Essay teachers say there is no need to give an introduction. But I did write an introduction. Introduction should be very simple. Like I am presenting here my introduction of Essay that I wrote in 2013.

"Freedom of speech should be limited"
Sometimes I intend to say something but the very moment I decide not to.
Once uttered words can not be taken back as a fired bullet can not be returned. One must think twice before expressing something. Speech is one way of expression while gestures, acts, images and texts are other various forms of expression. If not expressed properly all means of expression can lead to devastation. Today freedom of speech or freedom of expression has become an issue of heated debate. Many oppose and many support it for many reasons. West and East both have different approaches towards freedom of speech hence leading to a vast gulf between the two parts of world. If not properly addressed at international forums like United Nations, this issue can lead to wars between East and West as signalled by the recent violent incidents after the release of a controversial film defaming Muhammad(PBUH). UN should define the limits of freedom of speech/expression in order to make it obligatory upon its member countries to avoid public debates or gestures causing controversies.

This is an introduction and one can evenly distribute the content of entire essay in introduction. But for another part of essay do not mix up recommendations and evils etc in a single paragraph. The purpose of introduction is to give an idea about what course you are going to take ahead with your essay.

My topic was Modern day communication via social networks puts an end of true and sincere relationships.
Well i don't remember the outline I am sorry for that in this regard but what i did , wrote about communication in first paragraph and then about social networks in second paragraph. then I wrote teachers, parents, students and network providers and government's perspective about social networking's evils and at the end gave some suggestions to eliminate these evils finally concluded it.

Respected Members! I'll advise you to read research articles from Research journals so that you can understand the art of systematic and organised writing. Moreover, abstract and Introduction are two different things when it comes to essay writing,I perceive, in an essay abstract plays the role of an outline while the introduction that of an entry gate.
