How To Write Graduate School Essays Cary NC

1. Choose the best question for you. Every grad school asks different questions. Many are variations on the same "Why do you want to do this..." theme. Others are questions more specific to your field of interest, such as "What would you like to research..." Or you may find that you get to choose from among several different questions. If this is the case with your application, read the questions carefully and find the one that you can best answer. For instance, if you can go on and on about your research interests but don't have any internships or field work to talk about yet, opt for the question asking about the future, and not the past. You want to put your best foot forward. Sometimes, choosing the right essay makes a big difference.
   
   
2. Read and answer the question carefully. Once you have selected your question, or had it selected for you by a "MUST RESPOND" notation, read it carefully, seeing how it's broken down. You want to write a complete essay, answering all parts thoroughly. So don't rush to write parts "a" and "b" to the point that you fail to notice parts "c" and "d." Most essay questions are straightforward. But if you read the essay question and are still unsure about what the question really wants, consult a professor or a trusted peer for a second opinion. Don't try to answer something if you have no clue as to what it is really asking.
