 Some secrets of writing an essay 

• Do not try to memorize texts of finished works by heart, if the topic is somewhat different, this will negatively affect the result.
• If at the first moment it seemed to you that you cannot write an essay on any of the topics proposed to you, do not panic, sit down, calm down. Most likely, after a while, the situation will no longer seem so critical, and you will remember something.
• If you are very worried and cannot calm down, try the following breathing exercises: relax your arms and legs, close your eyes, take a deep breath, hold your breath for 20-30 seconds, then exhale slowly, repeat 5-6 times until you calm down.
• Try to write everything you know on each topic. Then try to somehow arrange everything that was recorded like write my narrative essay
• Carefully read all topics, try to determine the exact lexical meaning of each word of the topic, and only then - the general lexical meaning of the phrase or utterance. Consider the direction of development of the topic, correlate the topic of the essay with your knowledge and decide whether you can write an essay on this topic, or is it better to refuse it.
• When choosing a topic, rely on your knowledge and software. Do not try to create a literary masterpiece. Now you need to prove that you can write an essay competently.
• Write down the main points that you would like to talk about in your essay, build them logically - this will be your initial plan. Refer to him while writing the text, he will help you maintain a logical line and, therefore, reveal the topic.
• Relate the volumes of introduction, conclusion, and the main part. The largest part should be the main part, the introduction - about half as much, the conclusion - the smallest in volume. Remember that any “distortions” with the size of the composition can also negatively affect the final result.
• Do not forget that the epigraph is the decoration of the composition, but if you are not sure whether it is suitable, or if you do not know the exact text and punctuation marks, it is better not to write it at all - for the absence of the epigraph, no one will reduce the score.
• And most importantly, when you are going to the exam, tell yourself that you can do everything, that you can do anything.
