Please tell us how long was your outline?

i don't know my score... as i have passed it so i will come to know about my marks after the interviews

my outline started from the few lines of first page and took the second full page.
the factor of proportion should be kept in mind while writing the outline. outline more than 1.5 or 2 pages for a 2ooo words essay (14-15 pages )seems really absurd.

I chose the topic: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"

Outline: almost 1 page (a little less than a page so far as I remember)
Essay: a little over 3000 words

I Disapprove of What You Say, But I Will Defend to the Death Your Right to Say it

Introduction:

Humans are gregarious beings from religious and evolutionary perspectives
This social nature leads to problems related to social interactions
One of these problems is that of 'right to free speech'

Nature of Rights:

What type of right is the right to free speech (moral or legal)?
Why is it a moral right?
Where do moral rights come from?
Social contract establishes it as a right
Its moral nature can be understood using moral theories of Kant and Mill

Social Contract:

What is it?
Give briefly, the perspectives of Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau
How it establishes free speech as a right which has to be defended by the state?

Moral Theories:

Teleological argument - Mill's Utilitarianism leads to greatest satisfaction for the greatest number of people if free speech is a right protected by the state
Deontological argument - Kant's duty based ethics make free speech people's duty, and its protection state's duty
Social contract establishes free speech as a right and moral theories help us realize this right's moral nature

Contemporary Issue - Charlie Hebdo:

Defend the right of everyone to make any remark so far as it can be counted as free speech
But blasphemy and hate speech do not count as free speech - why?
Show that blasphemy and hate speech are both immoral from utilitarian as well as deontological points of view
Any speech/expression which is immoral by the same theories which establish the right to free speech as a moral right cannot be considered as free speech

Advantages and Necessity of Free Speech:

Processes related to democracy are contingent on promotion and protection of free speech
These processes include infromed decision, women empowerment, affirmative action etc
Free speech was important even in history
If forward looking people did not support free speech, Prophets would never have been successful, new revolutionary ideas would have never taken root etc

Thank you for your appreciation. However, the outline I produced during the exam was slightly compressed and therefore less detailed than this one. But fingers crossed...

Avoid regular use of "Netspeak" or other "cute" grammar or spelling (For example: writing "R U a woman?" instead of "Are You a woman?").It is against Forum Rules. Use "you" instead of "u".

Hello

Dear would you please check my essay that I have posted in another thread.

A word from the qualifier would certainly help me evaluate where I stand at the moment and what should I do to improve.

Thread name is "when life gives you lemons make lemonade"

I attempted the essay “War on terror has contributed to growing abuse of human rights". Since the topic was an area of my expertise-have studied war on terror considerably so contentwise it was always going to be plentiful, but still the information had to be funnelled. In the same dates, the US congressional Intelligence Committee had published a report regarding the human rights violations by the CIA so that was helpful and fresh in my mind. All I had to do was to arrange the points logically and avoid irrelevancy, incoherence and colloquial expressions,which I did. I was always confident of my essay but as they say expect the unexpected in CSS result so I was a bit nervous, but thanks Heavens! all the doubts vanished once the result was out.
