#summative essay

Started on my commercial law summative essay, due 23/02. It's actually quite nice not leaving everything to the last minute. This has a 2500 word limit and I've just done my first draft for the introduction (currently at 152 words). My notes taken from class that apply to this essay are 8 pages long and I'm relatively confident that I can chip away at this assignment over the next few days and get it completed to a high standard. The essay is only 50% of my grade, with the other 50% coming in May from a summative exam [and I am so much better at exams]. Hoping for a 68-72 in this module overall, as I know the lecturer is a harsh marker.

The run-up to The Witch Queen story was 'survive the truth' and the truth being sought was 'how does moth lady evilqueen become light-blessed gunshooter' and the answer given was a giant hard-to-swallow pill. They really said 'survive the dissonance of your most scandalous villain becoming worthy in the eyes of your god of the same blessings as you'.
In this essay I will:
Talk about what the truth really is we are meant to survive, and how that truth is reflected in the game's greater narrative landscape
Talk about the player expectations going into TWQ story, the bait-and-switch part of the campaign's story
Talk about my own experiences with ideological conflict and dissonance within a religious community, and make some biblical comparisons that I hope don't turn into a dumpster fire (I draw a nice parallel between moses and variks)
Talk about shin malphur a lot but also not enough
Talk way too much about the horse-with-six-hindquarters aka the best visual metaphor in the game that isn't spherical.
And probably some other broad points I cant remember right now.
Look I'm not a good or practiced writer but I havent made anything in over a decade and the destiny story has been fermenting at a very critical rate and I need to tell you about this worm inside me.
If you are a destiny mutual of mine, please ping me to encourage me to work on this, if you'd be so kind

this weekend is gonna be a shitton of studying oh man
0 notes
Odd question but - I'm looking to study in the UK this fall, and I'm trying to get to grips with the grading system. Could you explain the grading boundaries to me please? It's different from the US, as far as I can see!
I found this handy table which you might find useful - I don't really understand the US system either lol.
Here's what I will say though - I have many times before seen Americans online seeing the percentages for the UK grade boundaries and immediately wax lyrical about how EASY and SIMPLE it must be to do well in the UK because OH MY GOD I could tooootally get 70%!!! In the US that's barely a C!!! Wow education must be soooo simple in the UK -
And uh. I have seen very few Americans in those discussions stop and ask themselves how much harder it might be to hit 70% in the UK. Which, as the international academic office in every university will tell you, is the crucial question you absolutely should be asking. Does an American 70% look the same as a UK 70%?
(It Does Not.)
So don't be fooled by that! Over here, at undergrad the pass mark is 40%. 40-49% gets you a third; 50-59% gets you what's varyingly known as a lower second (formally), a 2:2 (most commonly), or a Desmond (by sad people. It's a reference to Desmond Tutu - two two). A 2:2 is also the most commonly awarded degree classification over here.
60-69% is a 2:1, or upper second class honours. And then the top level is the first - 70% and up. The vast majority of firsts are earned by students who got 70-79%. Exceptional work pushes into the 80s. It is incredibly rare that you ever see a mark in the 90s, and when you do, it's almost always on maths papers where there are right or wrong answers and that's it.
I can't remember how the US's summa cum laude etc stuff maps onto that, though you could probably find that on Google as well. But as a rule of thumb, think first = excellent, 2:1 = good, 2:2 = fair, and third = you need to be careful and see what you can do to improve (although that is still a pass at university and that is not to be sniffed at).
Ooh, as a final point, though, there's also how assessment works, which again, I know is very different over here (again I don't really understand it in the US). Your lecturer cannot set random work here and there to count as summative assessment. Every module is different in how it's set up, but let's give an example:
Module: Coastal and Marine Conservation Two assessments, each worth 50% of the final grade. Assessment 1: A report on the biodiversity of Ramsey Island in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. Explore the cause of the lower biodiversity there than nearby Skomer/Skokholm; how was this challenged/rectified? How have species recovered since? What should be done into the future? Assessment 2: A two-hour closed book exam. Half of this exam (50 marks) will be a mix of short and medium length questions; things like "Define these five terms (two marks each)", or "Describe the process of longshore drift and its impact on sedimentation patterns (15 marks)" or what have you. The second half is a 50 mark essay - pick one of three essay questions offered, and off you go. (Essay questions are a staple feature of exams over here, and multiple choice questions are extremely rare and generally frowned on as being Not Sufficiently Academic.)
Now, in the case of this module, these are the only two assessment points. Both the report brief and the exam paper are registered with the academic office in the summer before the academic year even starts, and both are triple verified - by the lecturer who writes/sets them, by an internal verifier in the department, and an external verifier from another university. This is part of quality control.
If, for some reason, you fail one of these, or cannot submit them by their due date, or what have you, you still have to do them. If you claim for Extenuating Circumstances (e.g. "I was made homeless and my cat blew up, so I couldn't do it in time") then you get an extension on it; as long as you submit by the end of the academic period, you're fine. If you don't, you need to resit it. This normally means over the summer after the main term ends.
But, in the UK system what we can't do is go "Okay never mind, how about you submit a write-up of the volunteering you're currently doing with SeaLife instead and we'll count that?" The reason being, under the UK system that is not a quality-controlled solution. That has not been checked and verified as an equivalent assessment to what the rest of the class has done; so if you do that and get a 2:1, there is no assurance that you are actually of the same academic quality as one of your peers who got a 2:1 for that research report on Ramsey's biodiversity.
Which... don't let it scare you! As I say, there are a LOT of systems that can help you if things start going wrong (always, always, always keep Student Support and your lecturers in the loop). But that is a different system from what I understand you might be used to, so heads up on that.
(I am not arguing that one is better than the other, by the way. Last time I explained a difference in the UK university system I got a very hostile and aggressive American in the notes throwing a right strop over how terrible the UK system clearly is because XYZ, right up until I had to actually say "I am literally just describing how it's different, not claiming superiority," and then they went mysteriously quiet and stopped replying. So to forestall that, I am only describing the differences. There are advantages and disadvantages to each.
The UK system is certainly more inflexible. But it does, incidentally, at least free you from the tyranny I see reported so often by US students of the dreaded Tenured Professor who deliberately as a matter of pride sets impossible exams that everyone fails. Over here, that shit Does Not Fly. So there's that.)
Anyway - hopefully that answers your question! Any others, hit me up. Good luck, and enjoy your studies!

Misreable - Bully!Bakugou x reader
When you walked down the halls he would shoulder check you or trip you. He would talk loudly about you behind your back to make sure you here. He would call you names whenever chance he got. He would break your stuff or steal it sometimes. The normal bully shit and etc.
But as usual you bit your lip and ignored him. You were taught that if you ignore them, eventually they’ll fuck off and get bored. But Bakugou apparently never got bored because this was your third year of highschool and he still wanted to fuck with you.
One day he takes it too far and you snap in front of everyone. And he can’t do anything but watch as you loose your fucking shit.
Angst, bullying, suicide mentions, suicide threatening, bakugou gets what he deserves, lots of cussing, violence
I been wanting to write this for a while but I couldn’t figure out the format. I hate this sm but Lmk if yall want a part 2 in the comments.
Tumblr media
The hate between you and Bakugou was not complicated. He was a bully, you were his victim. Simple as that.
Bakugou would go out of his way to fuck with you every single day without fail. You had started to hate school because of it. You only had two classes with him and yet he decided to target you out of everyone else.
When you walked down the halls he would shoulder check you or trip you. He would talk loudly about you behind your back to make sure you here. He would call you names whenever chance he got. He would break your stuff or steal it sometimes. The normal bully shit and etc.
“Watch where your fucking going, stone-blind bitch.” He spat at you. He bumped into you, you had even tried to move over for him. But as usual you bit your lip and ignored him. You were taught that if you ignore them, eventually they’ll fuck off and get bored. But Bakugou apparently never got bored because this was your third year of highschool and he still wanted to fuck with you.
You continued on with your day like always, ignoring the harrassment you faced. UA was a guarentee to a successful life, like an infinate amount of money to a grocery store. With UA on your resume, your dream job was yours. So you bare through it, you only had two years left, including this one. You can survive.
Others caught onto what Bakugou was doing and began to isolate and bully you too. He was one of the most popular boys so that immediately made you a weird kid. They laughed and giggled when Bakugou harrassed you. You could still survive.
Atleast you thought you could but your patience is running thin. The last piece of rope twitched as you come back to the lunchroom from the bathroom to find Bakugou and his goons snickering at you.
You sat at a single seat lunch table, one on the more sucluded side of the lunchroom. You had work to do, always. With all the AP classes you took, knowing damn well you’d be screwed, the work load never ended. You needed that extra credit though and nothing was gonna stop you from passing those classes, not even the bully that occupies them.
Thats why when you looked down at the summative 5 page essay you had been working on smeared with the expensive ass milkshake you got at the small cafe next door, you lost your fucking shit.
The whole lunch room had gone quiet, reduced to static in your mind. It was ruined. You knew you shouldn’t have done it on paper. You should’ve just told your professor your computer was in the shop and it’d be late. You should’ve just went to the library and worked on the sticky computers there. You shouldn’t have just went with paper even if you like it better anyway.
On top of your report was a note written in clean, cursive handwriting. Handwriting you knew as Bakugou’s.
Maybe if you used all the money you spent on stupid shit like this milkshake, you could afford to get a computer.
just as you finished reading the note a flash or liquid was thrown straight at you.
Bakugou came over to you with a cup of bright colored juice and pretended to trip just to throw it right into your face.
“Oops.”
You hated him. You wanted him to die. You were going to kill him.
The whole lunch room was watching. They pointed and giggled with their friends. Some put their hand over their mouths with a gasp. They looked to their friends for approval to laugh. You were humiliated.
His friends cackled loudly in the back, slapping each other and jumping around. The liquid seeped into the s/c t-shirt you wore, leaving an undeniable stain like a scar after a war. It told everyone what just happened to you.
You hated yourself. You wanted to die. You were going to kill yourself.
You snapped. You didn’t know when your body started to move from the drunken feeling of adrenaline. Your fist slamming against his chiseled jawline sobered you up.
The wind up and deliver almost threw you to the floor. You put everything into that punch; your pain, your embarrasment, your tolerance, your suffering, and most of all: your anger.
The sound of your fist reverbed through the lunchroom. The laugher was gone. There were gasps, then there was silence. Dead silence.
The strength of the punch made him stumble backaway from you. He held his cheek in his palm as he looked up at you with a look of surprise and fury. He had no time to block since it was so spontaneous. His cheek began to swell.
The look of bloody murder would’ve made you shit your pants normally. Something about the act of pure revenge coursed through your veins.
“I CAN’T FUCKING BELIEVE YOU!” Your scream bounced off the wall into everybodys ears. “For all my years of highschool you have hurt me and insulted me! You made my life a living hell! And you wont even tell me what the fuck I did wrong!”
Tears began to well up in your eyes but you swallowed them down to continue your speech. “And I know why you won’t tell me, YOU DONT FUCKING KNOW!” You stepped closer to him to scream the last part in his face.
You pushed him back, he let you. “For YEARS ive been waiting for you to get bored and leave me the fuck alone but you just WONT. I don’t know why the hell you do this to me but I’ll tell you one thing,” you shoved an accusing finger in his face. As you met his fiery eyes you yelled at the top of your lungs: “GROW. THE FUCK. UP.”
The push him back again, he lets you once more. “We’re about to graduate and your going out of your way to fuck with ME! Tellin me I dont have friends, YOU LEFT ALL THE FRIENDS THAT CARE ABOUT YOU! Now your with a whole bunch of fakes that talk shit about you when your not around. YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS TOO! Friends care about you! And NOT ONE, and I mean NOT ONE of your fucky ass hype master ‘friends’ over there give a single fucks ass about you.”
Your voice lowered, “You might be popular but you are fucking insignificant. You’re a sadistic asshole who makes everyone around them MISREABLE!”
Everything from the past 2 years pours out of you like rainfall and you can’t stop it. You want him to feel how you feel. Embarrased and isolated. You want him to feel like a fuck up just like he makes you feel. And he lets you, too shocked to even say anything.
Tears finally pour out of your eyes but you keep pushing. This was your chance and you were not gonna drop it.
You balled up his shirt and dragged him down to meet his widened eyes. His face twistsd with a look that said he was out for blood. He looked astonished where he was petrified to the floor.
He watched the tears fall down your face with his eyes bulging. “You make me misreable.” You spit through gritted teeth. “You make me want to give up and just end it all.” His eyes widen even more at this and his face twists into something sour, like he bit into a lemon of truth and self awarness.
You lower your voice to speak in a clear tone that only he could hear. “And if I do end up just jumping off a building or taking 3 whole bottles of pills or maybe even slitting my wrist, I want you to remember that this was your fault. That you pushed me to this. No one else but you and your influence. And I hope you take it to the grave and die on that hill cause the way that things are looking, I will too.”
The next thing you remember you were pulled away by staff into the office. You were suspended for a week.
You were not excited to go back to school.

Any advice on how to make progress on a writing project while dealing with emotional/mental fatigue? I’ve wanted to work on my book for MONTHS now but between irl stress and overall fatigue making me feel like all I have the energy for is just watching YouTube and scrolling social media, which just makes me feel worse for not writing. I just miss being in that headspace where I can write for hours at a time.
I understand your sentiment. I went through this recently too and only just got out of it around the end of last year.
Without knowing any details of your irl stress, considering this has lasted a few months for you, I'd first ask if its something in your power to change. I've found it's hard to be creative in an unhealthy environment too, but even harder to make changes to that unhealthy environment if it's something familiar or comfortable or might be too upsetting to change. We're creatures of habit that tend to get stuck in loops and patterns, and if any of those sound like something you're going through that causes mental or emotional stress and fatigue, I highly recommend taking steps to break those patterns or remove certain stressors. Any small changes or accommodations to your overall mental health is something I highly encourage first and foremost.
If they're stressors out of your control, and scrolling YouTube or social media is your coping patterns for the stress while in fatigue, that's something that can be hard to break too. I'm guilty of it myself, like even today I scheduled my day to write, but I got hit with a massive bout of burnout and ended up taking a five hour nap while some YT played in the background. I felt bad too when I woke up that I didn't get to my schedule today, but lately I've been reminding myself that I've been doing well, and my body speaks to me when it's time for a recharge. There's no shame in resting, so I recommend allowing yourself that time to recharge without feeling guilty for not writing. Your body needs it and you can't be your most creative self without taking the time to rest, hydrate, and whatever else your body needs.
If you find it's hard to break away from something like YT while in burnout, I'd ask yourself what kinds of videos are you watching? Something you've seen before like old comfort channels or something new? I'd recommend trying to find content that relates to your work and have it on for "research purposes" to help keep your project in mind while you relax.
Back in late 2023, I was still kind of stumbling through some recent changes to how I navigate in the world post-autism/cptsd dx, but I wanted to write and not have that feeling of guilt too. In my book, one of the timelines takes place in 1995, so I'd put on old 90s commercials, video essays of the decade, etc, and basically be a couch potato when the fatigue hit while it got absorbed. If I came across something interesting, I'd make little notes to myself and tell myself "you're technically writing!" to keep that guilty feeling at bay. The best part is it's technically true! Once I got to a better place where I could sit down and write something, I already had a bullet list of interesting things to include in the novel related to the culture and history of the time period, and the scenes felt very natural to type out since I already did some of the legwork in my couch potato era.
Writing for yourself is very therapeutic and healing in its own way, so if you'd like to tackle subjects that connect to your stressors that could be a way to keep writing if you absolutely feel the need to write. Even if it's not part of a main story or project you're working on, sometimes the habit of sitting down to write small micro fictions of your day as a journal entry with characters or familiar settings can be helpful in getting back into the swing of it.
The most important thing I'd like for you or anyone to take away is that it's okay to take time off and there's no need to feel ashamed of that. I took off all summer of 2023 from writing because at the time, everything felt so big and overwhelming and scary, and I'm very glad I did. I focused on the areas of my life that needed improvement so I could be healthy and live a better life as a recognized autistic adult. I knew it wouldn't last forever, and maybe the temporary aspect is what made it easier. Maybe set a goal post so you feel more in control of your schedule, even if it's something small for now. Point is, the time I needed made me feel more relaxed and energized when I came back to the blank page last fall, and now I finished my book! I'm doing revision work and I wrote short poems and works, some of which are getting published next year! If 2022/2023 Erin knew that? She'd think you were lying lol
Sometimes we just need those few months off while we go through changes or transitional eras of our lives, and there's no shame in it at all! Just remember your stories and projects are worth telling, but shame doesn't help at the end of the day. Just do your best each day, and before you know it, those days will add up to the next moment of your life when inspiration strikes and you write your next big thing
I hope this helped. Just remember, everything is temporary, and life happens in ebbs and flows like water. You'll be back to that headspace, but just remember to take care of yourself first and give yourself the love you need until you get there.

HAIKYUU BOYS AS [MODERN] HIGH SCHOOL BOYS a/n: i'm talking about a level of realism that has been ignored for so long, but super accurate because i am in high school and i know everything. keep in mind, they are teenage boys! they're not angels! they're evil incarnate.
Tumblr media
ATSUMU ➢ the guy who carries around the speaker it's the big jbl speaker with the strap. always playing drake, uzi vert, carti, the weeknd, or 21 savage – sometimes there's a sprinkle of UK drill or afro beats. on the way to class there's always something playing.
HANAMAKI ➢ the guy who never shows up we all question how he managed to graduate. the last time he's attended a full week of school was when he was 15. he skips days on end, and shows up on his study hall days.
MATSUKAWA ➢ the plug he's stocked up. disposable vapes, e-liquid, cigarettes, weed. whatever his friends, or underclassmen needs, he's got. he pockets all his lunch money, is not stingy with prices, but always has the best flavours.
SUNA ➢ always late to class he walks slow. in the morning, he takes a detour around the school showing up 25 minutes late and blames it on the bus. always late to exams, and teachers have given up on him.
KUROO ➢ the whore he pulls, and is famous for it. a sort of playboy with charm but bad pick-up lines and doesn't know how to flirt. it's amazing how he gets by with the lack of game.
YAMAGUCHI ➢ the guy who gets adopted by a group of girls there's always one. it's a group of girls that have made him their own, he gets invited to the girls nights in, he knows all the gossip and drama. he watched pen15 when he was younger, and now realised how accurate it is.
IWAIZUMI ➢ dry as fuck don't try to talk to this guy. he doesn't speak unless you're close friends. he's super quiet and just kind of stares. he is dry as fuck, there's no way anyone – other than the bros – can have a proper conversation with him.
OIKAWA ➢ takes P.E / gym too seriously we get it! you like sports, but calm the fuck down. when people find out they're sharing a class with him, they groan and dread it. he's too competitive for his own good and easily becomes the enemy.
AKAASHI ➢ the IB student. complains about work load and getting a five on his summative. hates CAS but consistently meets expectations, wrote his extended essay in a night. says he needs to study but spends more time partying on the weekends. he can be an academic and still be a normal (popular) high school guy, remember that.

Besides Eliot, were there any prominent writers or critics who were Shakespeare haters?
Yes. Enlightenment-era writers, with their neoclassical aesthetics, took issue with his perceived irrationalism: Voltaire is the most famous example, but even Samuel Johnson in England made a number of sharply critical remarks in his own work on the plays. The Romantics were mostly "pro," but the belatedly neoclassical Byron also dismissed Shakespeare as a vapid plagiarist in his letters, inferior in sublimity to Milton. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the biggest names are Tolstoy, Shaw, and Wittgenstein. All three had some version of the same underlying complaint: his work is unrealistic, sensationalist, and puts forth no coherent, edifying worldview. It's not that different from Eliot's complaint; Pound, too, preferred Chaucer as closer to political and social realities.
In all these cases, we see a reaction against the Romantics, who most valued Shakespeare for his imaginative freedom and "negative capability." (I wrote about some of the anti-Romantic critique here, drawing on George Steiner's eloquent, summative bard-skeptical essay "A Reading Against Shakespeare," collected in No Passion Spent.) I've also suggested—in one of my Invisible College lectures—that Joyce is an undercover Shakespeare hater on more political grounds, anticipating feminist, Marxist, and postcolonial critiques.
I believe those are the biggest names; as I've said elsewhere, the list of Shakespeare haters is as distinguished as the list of anti-Stratfordians, but the Shakespeare haters are far more persuasive, precisely because they're hating the man from Stratford in all his proto-bourgeois ingloriousness. I'm a Shakespeare lover myself, and indifferent to the political critique, but there's something to the argument that much of his work suffers for its lack of metaphysics, of ultimate things, something that, in some moods, can make Dante or Dostoevsky feel more profound. Steiner writes a stirring passage in this vein near the end of his aforementioned essay:
Are there specific gravities of art and literature, of our experience of and response to art and literature, which arise from the felt, indeed declared pressure on art and literature of the presence or absence (in many cases, such as Dostoevsky's or Kafka's, absence is a more radical possibility of presence) of God? The theological-metaphysical enactment of what is gravest and most constant in human questioning, of that which lies, or may lie, on the other side of language, gives to certain texts an indispensable vulnerability and stature. The anguished patience of such questioning comes to possess us in the Oresteia; in Sophocles' Oedipus, Antigone, and Oedipus at Colonus; it presses on us, almost unbearably, in Euripides' Bacchae. We hear it in Marco Lombardo's voice out of the purging smoke in Purgatorio XVI; in Ivan Karamazov's prosecution of God; in the parables of Kafka. There is a very real sense in which Shakespeare does know and say everything; does he know and say anything else?
I'm not sure this is true of King Lear or The Winter's Tale or The Tempest, but, since even these seem pagan-occult rather than concerned with the Platonic or Abrahamic God Steiner is so preoccupied by, I accept his general point.
Maybe artists criticize each other better than actual critics can, because they can in criticizing each other complete each other. Steiner, skeptical of American literature, does not mention Melville, who thought Shakespeare wrote in the fetters of his pre-American and censorious era. Therefore in Moby-Dick Melville might be said to have brought Shakespeare into what the bard had been forced to avoid: a confrontation with God.

I've been visiting the clinic more recently than I have before, as well as shopping at local grocers. Lots has happened in the past month as I've started school. I'm maintaining my own place and planning out my time a little more consciously. I'm really enjoying my time by myself, and I'm super fortunate that I have the oppertunity to do so. I really want to make a plan with friends to go to the art gallery. I believe October is the best time for indulging in the arts.
As a proper low down, here is my to-do list for the month: - First Aid & CPI Training - Chemistry: Textbook chapter readings, essay, study for mid-terms - Biology: Lab chart, biotech presentation, researching summative task, study for midterm - Advanced Functions: Unit review/ midterms ps. pictures were taken by moi ;) pps. what is your favourite autumn drink? I. am. loving. the pumpkin chai cold brew from SB rn.

The Role of Essays in Academic and Professional Settings
Essays hold a central position in both academic and professional landscapes, functioning as potent tools for assessment, communication, and the cultivation of critical skills. Their significance extends across diverse domains, with essays serving as multifaceted instruments that encapsulate knowledge and ideas while promoting the development of essential competencies.
1. Assessment and Critical Thinking in Academia:
Within the academic realm, essays play a pivotal role in assessing students' comprehension of specific subjects and their capacity for critical thought. These written assignments encompass a wide array of formats, including research papers, argumentative essays, and literary analyses. The primary objective behind these assignments is to not only demonstrate a student's grasp of the subject matter but also to present compelling evidence to support their perspectives.
2. Skill Refinement in Writing:
Beyond the confines of the classroom, essays play a crucial role in honing the writing skills that are indispensable in various professional contexts. Proficiency in effective written communication is a prerequisite for success in numerous careers, and essays provide an arena for individuals to refine this competency. Constructive feedback garnered from these endeavors propels iterative enhancements, fostering the parallel growth of writing prowess and the ability to think critically.
3. Communication and Persuasion in the Professional Arena:
As individuals traverse into the professional sphere, essays emerge as invaluable instruments for disseminating ideas, conveying intricate information, and persuading stakeholders. In the realm of business, essays find application in articulating concepts and proposals to colleagues and clients alike. These documents take on diverse forms, encompassing business plans, project proposals, and white papers. Their fundamental purpose is to influence readers toward specific courses of action or to supply the necessary information for informed decision-making processes.
4. Essays in Legal, Medical, and Summative Roles:
Moreover, essays assume a significant role in specific professional contexts, such as the legal and medical fields. In the legal domain, essays take on the responsibility of conveying compelling legal arguments, advocating viewpoints, and ultimately influencing judicial outcomes. Similarly, within the medical sphere, essays are employed to communicate groundbreaking research findings, educate peers about emerging medical interventions, and elucidate intricate procedures.
In conclusion, the influence of essays is undeniable across both academic and professional spheres. They fulfill a multitude of roles, ranging from evaluating student comprehension and critical thinking capacities in academia to honing the writing skills crucial for success across diverse professional trajectories. Concurrently, essays serve as potent vehicles for communicating intricate concepts, endorsing propositions, and persuading audiences, thereby elevating the effectiveness of communication within varied domains.
