  • Check for the grammar and for the punctuation marks.
  • Don’t be generalized and too personal in the essay writing, be neutral and convey your thoughts.
  • Better choice of words will be an additional booster to your essay and letters. You don’t get marks for the usage of strong difficult words, so be simple in writing.
  • Proper ending to the passages is always important.
  • Use appropriate titles for the passages if you need to do so
