Is it ok if I write a 350 word college essay, when the teacher told me to write a less 500 word essay?

The most important part of college is to attend and to turn SOMETHING in on the deadline. Even if it's not quite 500 words it will be just one grade if it's not an "A" you have time left in the semester to bounce back. Also, if you can clearly make your point (depending on the subject, if it's a writing class then you should probably type the appropriate number of words), if your essay covers your topic completely and is supported by original thought and support from your text, then you should be good. It's not your fault you can write in a condense and concise form and cover your topic thoroughly with 150 less words then the rest of his/her students.

Unless the school specifically tells you it's okay (the ones that do usually state it on their website), I wouldn't advise it. They already have to wade through so much paperwork, they probably won't appreciate extra. Honestly, 3 is enough. Choose professors who will write with three different perspectives and who know you best.\nHowever, if you're determined to send more, contact the department directly and ask. They usually list a contact on the program's website.

it depends on your major, but not much more than you do in high school.  although you may have more work, you have longer deadlines.  you have a lot of essays.  good luck when the time comes

You've never written an essay before and you're at the university? That seems strange. Anyway...In your introduction, you should briefly mention the three articles you are comparing and contrasting. Then, as you discuss each in the body paragraphs you can just refer to each article by the author's last name. For example, you could say, "The Smith article says that...." etc. It wouldn't hurt to add a brief appendix at the end.

I would rate this essay a B.  There were quite a few grammatical errors and essay rule errors as listed below that I would change to bring up the grade:\n\nDo not use contraction.  In order change it's to it is, wouldn't to would not, don't to do not, let's to let us, doesn't to does not, wasn't to was not, doesn't to does not, you'll to you all, don't to do not, let's to let us and don't to do not.\n\n1st paragraph - 2nd line - ambitious teacher she (change she to who) - charming wife. Mrs. Lana Neville. to charming wife named Mrs. Lana Neville.  Mrs. Lana Neville by itself is not a sentence. 3rd line - question to questions - 5th line - I would change teaches grade one through grade 10 to teaches grades one through ten.  You shouldn't use one actual number and one number word, but you're also not supposed to used actual numbers for the lower numbers so you should use both word numbers. - 6th line - impressed of the skills should be impressed by the skills and she show us should be she shows us and place a comma after So.\n\n2nd paragraph - line 2 - place a comma after moreover and make it one word and change her to she - line 3 - stay on should say stay out of - line 4 - place a comma after otherhand and make it one word and place a period after campus and begin She thinks it as a new sentence.\n\n3rd paragraph - lline 2 - place a comma after In addition - line 3 - boys then should be boys than and you should say she has a harder time instead of she has harder time - last line last word - sake should be sakes because you're talking about more than one boy.\n\n4th paragraph - line 1 - place a comma after predictably and defiantly should be definitely and graphic should be plural (graphics) - line 2 - weather is mispelled in this context - it should be whether - line 4 - be ware is one word - beware and miss behave is one word - misbehave and quite should be quiet - line 5 - there should be a comma after students and but in should be but at - line 6, place a comma after well - line 7 - foward for should be forward to and a astonishing should be an astonishing and place a comma between year and which.\n\nParagraph 5 - line one - place the word a between had and really - line 2 - Put Let us before the word hope and expectation should be plural (expectations) - acheivable year is high should be achievale year are high because expectations is plural changing is to are.  Make Just do not worry one sentence and begin Do your best as another sentence.\n\nI hope this helps out.

31 words isn't a lot to write. If your partner won't do anything, then tell the teacher, or get a new partner, or refuse to do everything. Either she will come around, or your teacher will  do something. \n\nYou could just act like her and do nothing. Sit around and ask her how the project is comming. If you act like you don't care, she may come around and do some work out of the fear that you guys will fail the project.\n\nWell, that's all I've got. Hope I helped!

the admissions committee is looking for a window into you.  A stock essay from a website does not accomplish this.  If you are interested in premed, you obviously want to go into it for a reason.  500 word essay is not that long.  Use the essay to reveal your values, commiment and goals for your degree.

You could include in your essay at least a little respect for the language that you are writing in. For me it is about finding the best or most appropriate word to describe the circumstance without resorting to an expletive or taking the language into the gutter. You could start by rephrasing your request for help. A simple “please help me,” as I have shown a total disregard to my teacher asked me to write an article on respect as an atonement for it. In the end, it will be meaningless, if you ask someone else to do the work for you. You can only move forward as a human being if you learn to respect those who have done so much to educate you. From the person who cleans the classroom, to the head of the school or college you should treat all people with kindness and respect. It is for you to learn how to be the best human being that you can. One day you will be an adult and I hope that you will have tried to put this into practice or your world will be a very shallow place. This is only about two hundred words, but you know the reasons why you are to write the piece. I hope that you will undertake it in the right spirit.

Wow, things have surely changed since I was in school. Requiring a 3rd grader to write an essay, that was unthinkable a few years ago. We had to write papres about "What I did on my summer vacation" but not essays. Try this website, it's called How to Write an Essay:\nhttp://www.english.bham.ac.uk/staff/tom/teaching/howto/essay.htm

School is work, but extra credit it the way to raise without putting in much. See if your teacher has any avable, then do it all in one blast. If it making poster do 6 in one night (That is what I spent last Wensday doing) It will take some time, but it gives you room to slack off. Even though i suggest putting in an effort.

if you're thinking of using someone else's work as your own, then i suggest that you just write the essay yourself.\nYour teacher will know if you just copied it.

I nearly started a riot in a sixth grade classroom when I asked the students, "What do you think of  your school lunch?" Within 10 minutes, they were making petitions to have the lunch program changes to be healthier. They were so captivated.\n\nI was also in another middle school classroom where the students had written fantastic essays called "Those who don't know ." They each picked a topic they loved (say football) and wrote an essay that formatted as follows:\n*****\n   -----------------\nThe Assignment - Copy Change\n\nStudents are to write their own "Those Who Don't."  The essay should be about a place where they feel comfortable, but where others may not feel comfortable.  It should also include information about a place where they feel uncomfortable.  The following phrases should be included in the three paragraph essay:\n\n       Those who don't know any better .......  They think .....    They think .....     They are stupid people who.....\n\n       Be we aren't afraid .....\n\n       ....our knees go shakity shake .....     Yeah.  That's how it goes and goes.\n\n\nI hope this helps!\nmore about the assignment at: http://wonders.eburg.wednet.edu/Morgan/ThoseWhoDont.htm

No, not really.  Go over a couple of practice tests to see - they're pretty good.  Don't panic over the essay portion, either.  Many colleges don't even count that portion.  Find out if the college(s) you're going to apply to count that before taking it.  If they don't, you're home free!

The other answers were valid and good advice.  I would add that you should critically look at the short paper and see if you could outline it.  If your points follow smoothly you should easily be able to create an outline from what you've written.  If you can't, maybe some re-organization is in order.  As a last thought for you, the adage "tell them what you're going to tell them, then tell them, and then tell them what you told them" will make sure you have a beginning, a middle with your information, and a summary (beginning and summary can just be a short sentence).    Since your essay is short, I've included a link to a short article speaking about seven steps to writing a good essay.  Good luck.  Hope you get an Excellent written in red across the top!

Is this a big essay? if it is, Talk to your professor to try to extend deadline...at least for you. as for the essay, try asking your library, ask them for any sources that will help you in that area, and also your history professor as well your English professor.

Ohh, college applications, ew. I finished all mine last month, yay. :D\n\nYou won't be penalized, but you should really try to stick to the suggested amount of words. A few over isnt bad, 150 over is kind of a lot.  Take out the extra stuff, see if you maybe stated some things twice.\n\nSome college applications will only let you have 250 when you type them in, they have a character count and wont let you go over.\n\nBut 250 sounds like the short answer questions, try to stick to short but still be detailed and answer the question. They have longer essays when they want longer answers.\nAt least thats how the University of Michigan application was. (;o we could be rivals, lmao)
