i had given my oultine on css forum, just after the exam. So , you can find it in my timeline.

guys how to write outlines of an essay please guide and share your experience here

So the hypothesis that anybody who attempted 1st essay topic was targeted, has been proven wrong, as many aspirants have attempted this topic and passed the exam.

I am thankful to shezad sb for initiating this thread.

I request all the qualifiers, or those who attempted this topic and passed, to please share outline and conclusion.

What was your score ? I attempted the same but got 17 :cry.
Please tell us how long was your outline?

Qualifiers, what would you suggest regarding outline of essay ? I have heard different approaches from different people which is why i am confused. What would you guys who passed essay suggest?
Should the outline be long enough to go around 2 or 3 pages or should it be short like 1 page or half a page ??
Does the length of outline matter ???
Do we need to mention each and every point in outline which we would write in essay or just 4 to 5 major points ???

The topic of my essay was War on Terror and Human Rights Abuses . My outline was scattered over one and a half page and the whole essay consumed around 20 pages or so .

It was my favorite topic because IR was one of my optional subjects. I took a MOOC on Coursera on Terrorism and Counter Terrorism , had already watched plenty of documentaries. I have a flood of information and statistics in my mind that I want to pen down but time was short .

So below is a brief sketch of my outline . I might be missing many points as they have been deleted now from my mind .

[B]Introduction[/B]
[B]A Brief History Of terrorism.[/B]
- From Zealots to Hassan ibn Sabah then to Reign of Terror in France after French revolution
[B]How to define Terrorism ? A puzzle for whole world.[/B]
- I briefly discussed the till now there is no accurate definition of terrorism. Every nations defines terrorism according to her own political and social scenario

[B]A Brief History Of war on Terror [/B]
• How it all started.
• Who were the coalition partners?
• Prime objectives
• The geographical area where it was fought
Who First Coined The Term War on Term ,US President George W Bush on September 21st 2001.

[B]How WOT is responsible for mass abuse of human rights [/B]
- Become a mere tool by the western powers to invade any country
- Given rise to Islamic phobia around the world.
- It was a direct challenge to the credibility of UN.
- Given rise to extremism around the world. Like TTP , ISIS etc
- Human rights abuses by CIA , their concentration camps , drone strikes , using cruel interrogation tactics as confessed by the CIA chief
- Exploitation of the rights of PoWs Guantanamo Bay , Abu Ghuraib jail incidents
- Made world more insecure
- Lack of Free trials
- Curb on freedom of Expression .
- Responsible for the Economic Crunch of 2008 .
- Electronic surveillance of Citizens , US NSA Prism program , Edward Snowden Case .
- Given a free license to oppressive regimes around the world to curb the just right of self-determination such as In India , Israel

Perfect!
This shows that if you have adequate knowledge about the given topic, you can pass it. Would you please tell us how you concluded your essay?

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.

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.
