Title: Compnents of an essay including conclusion
Post by: Miku on November 10, 2010, 06:56:28 PM

Hello

I am currently writing 800 words essay.

Then I just wonder that how many percentages conclusion should occupy in 800 words essay

and I have the same question about introduction and main body as well.

I know main body should be the largest part in an essay.

I would appreciate your answeres.

Thanks!

I think the introduction as well as the conclusion should take one-quarter of the essay. And of course the body should take the remaining half.

But don't forget that the conclusion is the first thing that the examinator reads and his/her first appreciation of your essay. And the conclusion is the last thing that the examinator keeps in mind. So try to blance your essay as the best way as possible.

Good luck!
