Want to Write Essays in a Format That is Easy for Me

• In 8, I had a conversation with various mentors and realized that I should find a style that allows me to write fluently.

• Goal: To write an essay in a way that meets the essential requirements while being comfortable for myself.

  • What are the essential requirements for an essay?
    • It should provide information about the person’s personality and other related factors.
    • It should demonstrate what the student will bring to the university and what they will take from it.
    • It should be interesting to read.
    • It should have a sense of reality.
    • It should make a connection between the writer and the reader.
  • One concrete example that meets these abstract criteria is what is commonly known as a typical essay, like the ones in JHU Essays that worked 2024.
    • How is this achieved?

      • It provides information about the person’s personality and what they will bring to the university and take from it.

        • This is shown through specific examples (Show, Not Tell).

      • It is interesting to read.

        • It includes literary expressions and engaging anecdotes.

      • It makes a connection between the writer and the reader.

        • It appeals to the reader’s emotions through anecdotes.
  • However, I personally find it difficult to write in this style, especially as a non-native English speaker. So, I want to explore other ways that are easier for me.
    • As long as I don’t misunderstand the essential requirements (6198e4cf79e11300000ce6ab), I don’t think there is a problem.
    • In fact, it could be more authentic to write in a way that suits my own style.
    • What do I struggle with?
      • I become too focused on writing in an essay-like manner, and as a result, I struggle to express my ideas clearly in terms of logic and structure.

• What writing style is comfortable for me?

  • Writing that clearly expresses logic and structure?
  • For example, if it’s A -> B -> C, then it should be written as A, so B, so C.
  • If it’s A, B, C in D, then it should be presented in a clear and understandable way.

• How does the above writing style meet the requirements?

  • The first point can be met by providing specific examples.
  • The challenge lies in how to create a connection between the writer and the reader and ensure the writing is interesting.

• I think if I deviate too much from the conventional style, it may not be interesting.

  • I hope that by taking a bold approach, it will become more engaging.
