essay format w/ 500 word max

Hi,

How do you format/approach an essay with a 500 worf max? It seems that you cant really have an intro and conclusion paragraph per se. Do you simply have one paragraph per main point? With an intro sentence on the 1st paragraph and an conlusion sentence on the last paragraph?

Thanks!

Dear vinviper1,

Yes, one intro and one conclusion sentence is a possible way to go. If the school has limited you to 500 words, then the admissions committee is looking for you to be as concise as possible in your thoughts. You might also check some other sections of the site for essay tips and suggestions.

Good luck,
Lisa
