Common Mistakes to Avoid When Writing An Essay
Common Mistakes to Avoid When Writing an Essay
Did you score low even after doing thorough research on your paper? Have you been trying to change your writing style but ended up disappointed? It is overwhelming when a student’s effort to craft an outstanding essay goes in vain because of some common mistakes. This post discusses some of the main mistakes students make when writing their essays.
1. Generic Titles
One of the most common mistakes students make when writing their essays is having too general titles. A good title should reflect the essay content. It should also inform your reader about the essay, conveying information about what your essay is about. Most of the students write titles that need to be more accurate and titles that are associated with the content, making a wrong impression. When writing essays, students should make sure they have short and concise titles that are easy to understand.
2. Not Including a Clear Thesis Statement
The other common mistakes that student make while writing their essay are failing to include a thesis statement or having an unclear thesis statement. Students should have a clear and concise thesis statement for their essay. A good thesis statement reveals the main idea behind your essay. Students should make sure to have a clear thesis statement at the end of the introduction, making sure that the thesis statement blends with the body of the article. Writing a strong thesis statement is something that most students need help with; if you are among those students struggling with writing a strong thesis statement, you can use a strong thesis statement generator to get a strong thesis statement for your essay.
3. Including Irrelevant Information
Students need to provide more relevant information in their essays. When required to write an essay, you should have meaningful information but meaningful and detailed information, but you can still handle your essay with the necessary information. When writing an essay, students should make sure to stick to the scope of the essay and include all the essential information while excluding unnecessary information.
4. Wrong Essay Formatting
Writing a good essay is not everything; how you present it also matters. When writing an essay, you should always pay attention to the formatting details. Make sure to format your paper correctly and in the proper style. Pay keen attention to the citation style. There are various citation styles, and thus, there is a high chance of making a mistake when formatting your essay. However, to ensure the correct citation style, you can use acitation machine.
5. Grammar Mistakes
Good writing should follow grammatical rules such as the use of active voice instead of passive voice. When writing an essay, you should always be keen to avoid typos, grammatical errors, spelling errors, and any other types of errors. This might be tricky, but with the homework help, you can get compelling essays that are free from errors.
6. Lack of Evidence
The other mistake that students need to correct while writing their essays is not supporting the evidence of their claims. Students should always support their claims with evidence to make their essays credible.
7. Not Including Credible References
A good essay should be based on sound research and facts. The references you use in your essay shape your perspective, so when writing an essay, make sure to use credible sources to do your research.
8. Plagiarism
Plagiarism is one of the most serious offences in academic writing. Each professor will only approve plagiarized content. With the advancement of technology, it is easy to detect plagiarism. To avoid plagiarism, you should always research and write your analysis. Alternatively, you can sweet studyto get plagiarism-free paper.
Conclusion
Crafting an outstanding essay requires attention to detail and avoiding common mistakes. From generic titles to plagiarism, each misstep can detract from the quality and credibility of your work. By ensuring clear thesis statements, relevant information, proper formatting, impeccable grammar, supported claims, credible references, and originality, students can elevate their essays to new heights. Embracing these principles not only enhances academic performance but also fosters a deeper understanding and appreciation of the subject matter. Therefore, students should approach essay writing with diligence and precision, recognizing that every aspect contributes to the overall impact of their work.

Study Tips for Humanities Subjects



The majority of studying tips I see are for subjects where there's a lot of rote memorisation, but what about those ones where you just have to research and write? As a history student in university, all of my subjects involve very little learning through memorisation and almost entirely annotated bibliographies and essays. Where I go to university, that's how the majority of courses are run, and I've got the formula down. So, from someone with a HD/GPA of 6.4/7 (American equivalent 3.71 according to this) who has never used AI, here's some study tips for this kind of subject.
1: Reading
The first paragraph of a text and the first sentence of each paragraph should tell you what it's about. You don't have to fully read all of it, just those parts, then if you think you'll use that paragraph you can read it.
While you're reading, write down the key themes next to the citation in your essay document. That way, you'll remember where to find the references for what you're trying to say.
2: Essays
If your university is anything like mine, you usually get to choose from a list of questions to answer or make up your own question. Remember to go for something that will fit the word count (not too broad, not too narrow), and try to make it something that interests you. If you can't make one up, pick the easiest one. Don't be a hero, it just needs to get done.
Make an essay plan. Trust me it makes writing it sooo much easier. Here's an example I made of what the plan would look like for this post:
For your first draft, don't worry about how it sounds. Just get the ideas out of your head and onto the page. You can even do this with your second, third, etc. drafts. If you count the essay plan as the first draft, you can just build on it. As long as you fix it at some point, you can write informally for however much of the process you want. I find it takes way less time because I'm not just staring at the page wondering how to get it right.
Make the point you're trying to make (based off what you learned in the lectures), then find sources for it. That way you'll actually know what you're looking for in a source.
3: Citing
This one's obvious, but put the links to your sources down before you try to make it look presentable. Formatting comes later.
If you've never done an annotated bibliography before, they can be really helpful, even if they're not required. Not only is it an expanded version of the writing down key themes part of the reading section, but it helps pare down your references to only ones that are necessary. It doesn't have to be formal, and shouldn't be part of your submitted page unless required, but it's a good idea to have one for your own use.
Look up the citation guide for your faculty. I can't count how many times I got points deducted because I had errors in my referencing. Use a tool like CitationMachine if you're not sure, but actually check what it puts out because sometimes it's wrong.
4: Professors
Research your classes and find out who's teaching them before signing up to the class. Last semester I had the worst time because an archaeology professor was teaching a digital curation subject and he had no clue what he was doing. Next semester, I'm taking another digital curation subject, but the professor teaches digital curation, so it'll be so much easier. Where I live, RateMyProfessor doesn't exist, but if it does where you are, pay attention to what people have said about them.
Teaching style matters. Is your professor well prepared? Do they seem passionate about what they're teaching? It's easier to find this out early if you're taking online classes. If their teaching style doesn't gel with you, or they just don't like you for whatever reason, it's ok to drop the class. If you have to take it, adjust your expectations accordingly.
If you're making your own essay question, or really doing anything that isn't what they told you to, check with your professor first to make sure it's ok. You don't need to for the tiniest little things, but it lets them know you value their opinion and care about your academics.
If you have the same professor for multiple subjects, or multiple essays in one course, pay attention to the feedback. Some professors really like things done a certain way. Do they want you to be more specific? More analytical? Do they just really hate a particular word or phrase? Learning from your mistakes can help you not lose those points again.
5: Mindset, Organisation, Routine, etc.
Know your why. Honestly, for a good couple of years there I spent every study day wondering if it was even worth it to keep going. But I love history, and I love museums, and I want to be a part of it. Your reason might be a little less self centred, or it might not (because what's wrong with that?). Either way, that drive can get you through a lot.
That being said, if it sucks that bad, you don't have to do it. You can drop the class if you need to, either for your physical health or your wellbeing. Obviously I'm not suggesting you drop out over an essay being difficult, but in my case, dropping that class with the bad professor would've been a good move. I spent too much time and effort trying to do something I hadn't really been taught how to do, and it really wasn't worth my energy. Unless it's required for your degree, don't worry too much about it.
At the beginning of the semester, look at the percentage each assignment is worth. Act accordingly. Don't put in 100% effort for a 20% assignment (unless you're getting really into it), that's a one way ticket to getting burnt out. There's literally no point spending an extra 12 hours perfecting something that's not worth at least 40%. It doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be done.
Find a study environment that works for you. I like to work with a buddy, whether that's my mum (who's working on her PhD) or an imaginary study group. I need to be somewhere different from where I usually hang out to get focussed (like a cafe or my desk). I need breaks, some people don't. I don't really think there's a single best way to study, as long as you're getting stuff done, it doesn't matter if it's not aesthetic or an approved method. That being said, if making it aesthetic works for you, do that.
---
And that's all I have. I'm sure there are more out there, but I've been in academia for a while now and this is what works for me. I know a lot of people are going back to school, so good luck! You got this!

James, STOP
James Somerton is trying to apologize again. First, James, CLOSEUPS ARE NOT THE RIGHT FRAMING FOR THIS "APOLOGY." Back that shit up to show your shoulders! This close is uncomfortable! One of the first things you learn for film is that extended closeups are uncomfortable for everyone! For the love of all the Muses, your saturation and lighting are terrible! Why is the focus off?! Also, also, finally on petty shit, why do your glasses frames have an etching on them that catches the light in such a weird way?! It's distracting!
Second, sir, sir, what is all this irrelevant bs?! Great, you explained why there was a huge spat with Jessie Gender. Most of it could have been cut down or just left at "I shouldn't have been as opaque about the situation." This was long winded and frankly not the real issue we have.
Third, sir, "getting permission" for the Evil Queens video... you got that after it was published and you'd been caught plagiarizing it. Let's correct that timeline error. Additionally, NO ONE CARES THAT YOU GOT PERMISSION FOR THE EXTRA COOKIE AFTER YOU ALREADY TOOK AND ATE THE COOKIE. YOU DON'T GET PERMISSION AFTER THE FACT.
Fourth, again, this wasn't "oops I cited it wrong" or "didn't credit properly." I will grant you actually fucking said the word plagiarism this time, but like... sir, you went to college. You had to learn how to cite sources. And frankly, you're not being held to college standards so like, get thee to fucking citationmachine and start a-plopping your sources in there. Boom done.
Five, why did you monetize this? No, I don't care that it's "for the people I plagiarized." Rule number one of youtube apologies: do not monetize your apology. It doesn't matter what excuse you make for it, it is... as the boys and girls and everyone in between say, a bad look.
I'm barely into watching this other reaction and I already want to yeet a table at this man. And for the record, I'm dealing with my lovely genetics' propensity for pain and still low key recovering from the stomach bug. I am pretty goddamn low on energy right now and I still have enough rage to fuel this.
#james somerton#gods help me I want to smack this man so hard#I will yeet him#my bi rage knows no end today
