The first thing you have to figure out when working on any essay is your subject. In high school, you can pick the type of subject you should dive into — that’s, you have to make sure you find enough details on it.

That’s something to think about, therefore.
The high school students are most frequently given argumentative and convincing essays. There are also plenty of public papers in one of these types – so you can look at them if you need inspiration. For example, when working on a discussion paper, a student should present two polar viewpoints on the subject and provide sufficient evidence to support each perspective. Yet it is not enough merely to speak about two sides of the debate – a writer should always come to an reasonable conclusion. The same goes for convincing essays — after all, the main purpose here is to reassure the listener.
