From Student Blogger, Nand: 10 Tips to Write a Professional College Essay
Writing a college essay is often more stressful for a student than taking a math exam. However, with a few simple tips you can greatly improve your ability to write professionally. I went through the same fear when I was writing essays for my application process. Here are the top 10 tips to write a perfect college essay which I learned from Jennifer Garcia, Program Manager at The International Education Center at Orange Coast College.
-
Be professional in your writing
-
Use synonyms of the words that are repeated many times
-
Don’t use the words which you don’t know how to use
-
Maintain the flow of the essay - link the title to your body

Don’t talk a lot about yourself
-
Use all types of punctuation marks
-
Stick to the topic
-
Type everything you think about then delete later if needed
-
Run your draft through another person, preferably an english teacher or counselor before submitting it.
