Before that, the following things should be kept in mind:
1) Reading Assignment carefully: What if you read the question wrong in a hurry and you end up with something completely opposite to the requirements? All your efforts will go right down the drain and you might be risking your grades. That is the risk you don’t want to take. Take your time. Read the question carefully.

2) Choosing an easy topic:Don’t stress over choosing a topic for your essay. Brainstorm different ideas in your mind. Note down the topics that sound interesting to you. It is always better to choose a topic of interest.

3) Researching your topic:It is better to choose a topic that you can justify with logic and reasoning. When you have to explain something to your readers, it is easier to use factual information rather than discussing a social or moral topic.

4) Proofreading your essay:

Don’t forget to recheck your essay for any spelling and grammatical mistakes or punctuation errors. Writing an essay is not very difficult. Just follow and a few steps and you are good to go.
