Hi @AcidMonster55

 

Essays can be really challenging, especially when you first start university.

 

I've done my fair share of 2000-word essays at university, and I will try to start planning the one that has the closest due date first. I think an important tip is to read the rationale and marking criteria/standards carefully, this really helps you pinpoint what you need to discuss in your work. It also helps to format the essay structure on a Word/Google Doc and then add dot points in each section for what you need to discuss. As for research, definitely utilise peer-reviewed journals and such from your university library. I found it helpful to dedicate at least an hour or two each day to reading sources and making notes.

 

Also, another important point is that if you can't write/think, please take a break! Taking a break gives your brain a chance to relax/recharge a little. You don't need to get it all done in one sitting either 😊

 

I hope this helps a little bit.
