all the boards did shrink
water, water everywhere
not a single drop of water to drink (Samuel Taylor Coleridge, 1834)

I made the above articulated outline for Topic 1. I began it with a poem. I did not know whether it is a Hadith, yet I manage to crack or unfold the topic and then proceed with the content.

I had practiced extensively. Wrote around 50 essays in all my 3 attempts most of these were full length essays. Took 5,6 mocks before exam which gave me an idea of my weakness.

Good thesis statement

Decent attempt.

You could have talked about the need about spearding awareness of water conservation i.e incorporation of its importance in curriculum etc. Role of media.

You are safe in essay as for as I am concerned.

Thank you. I talked about it in 6.3 heading about sharing awareness at homes, but didn't mention role of media or through curricula. Fingers crossed

There are few things that I want to mention regarding this outline.
1.Holy Prophet (PBUH) did not say the statement specifically for Pakistan.
2. No where the importance of water is mentioned.
3. it would be better if explained by considering international conflicts and perspectives.
4. Hydropolitics # Mark twain, "Whiskey is for drinking and water is for fighting over."
#Modi, "Blood and water cannot flow together at the same time" # possibility of third world war
5. International organisations and their roles
6. Essay has been written by considering the management issues of Pakistan and not by highlighting the essence of the topic

Thanks for the response

1. If you re-read the outlines, I first mentioned water problems on an international level and then narrowed down to Pakistan.
2. Regarding importance of water, I mentioned about it in the introductory para and then proceeded to the problems and solutions
3. I think it is okay if one is not mentioning role of organisations, rather specifying it to the problems that surround water security
4. There is no hard and fast rule that being Pakistani, one is not required to mention a national perspective by analzying the issue through water security and scarcity. Pakistan has a huge problem regarding water conservation and one cannot help talking about it
5. And yes, i didn't talk about modi's, Twain's or any other stance on water. This saying is open ended and it is not possible to add all the comprehensive ideas in 3 hours.

P.S. I talked about problems regarding water conservation more than the importance of its conservation

You have written a note on universal human equality with no clear stance.
Your essay could be clearer, I am just judging from the way you have written outline.

Intercultural communication does not have power to prevent the world war three; crossing lenguage barriers, turning down from political ideoligies, territorial disputes and religious attachments have greater values as compare to intercultural communication. It has potential to avoid some minor conflicts. In fact, there are other mitigate actions that could prevent it.

That was my thesis statement in exam. I used some main reasons or arguments with examples from all arround the world; political ideologies, religious attachments, territorial disputes etc.
