Just a quick reminder that we have our last Essay Course next weekend -Essay Practice on the 24th and 25th February.

We have learnt a great deal from this years courses already and have made significant changes to the advice we give on essay writing.

Following the Dubai Course and marking the essays from the Essay Writing Technique Course we realised that despite all the good advice we give you, people are still not translating their knowledge and our suggestions into high quality = high scoring essays.

Take home message - write less and get to the point. Do not try and write extensive, wordy essays. Take each point and justify your actions.

Most importantly, especially with the new style Essays where you have a specific and limited space in which to write and score, you have to realy study the question and the way it has been split up to ensure you address what the College want and that you get the right stuff in the right place. Not an easy task as the Sept guys will tell you!

I think we hav this sorted already however and the team on this weeks ABC Course will agree I hope. I think we all agreed that you need to paln even more now and think very very carefully before putting pen to paper.

Bubbling has become essential ... not that it ever wasn't Wink

I will be showing how to do this for the last time before March on next weekends Essay Practice Course. We have written 36 new essays in the new format and provide some hot topic predictions. Plenty of spaces if anyone is interested.
