You should always outline your essays.This does not just apply to scholarship essays, either.An outline helps lend focus to your thoughts and helps you create a picture of the “whole” that the essay will become.Judges can't stand when your writing is loose, lacks coherence(连贯性) or when you fail to connect your main points.They want to see that you can support your argument well with clear and brief examples and that these examples do, in fact, relate to the topic at hand.
If you have a choice in the topic you get to write about, always try to select something you are personally interested in.Don't write what you think the judges want to hear.This will only amount in an essay that reads like everyone else's, which is not a great way to make yourself stand out.
If you are bored with a topic, then your essay will be boring as well.Make sure your ideas follow a clear and logical path, meaning they are connected well and the transitions(过渡) easily flow from one idea to the next.Likewise, try to stay away from the obvious or the sad story.Yes, college will be a life-changing experience, but can you think of an interesting reason why this is so? And yes, it is terrible that you lost a family member at a young age, but what does it have to do with winning this scholarship?
