- UNIQUE
- -“Don't write an essay
that any one
of a thousand other seniors could write...
because they probably did.”
-
- PERSONAL
- -It's alright to use
“I”
- -Ask yourself and perhaps a
friend,
- “Does the real ME come
through?”
- -entertain AND inform through
your own personal style
-
- ELIMINATING OF WASTE
- -anything that doesn't carry
weight (i.e. general, ambiguous and boring filler)
- -What's left should be clear,
vivid, readable prose.
-
- REWRITTEN
- -Check mechanics, spelling,
rhythm, balance, order.
- -Write a final draft and type
it neatly.
