How long does it take you to write a 500 word essay?

Question

If you were given the topic, and you had to do the research and write a 500 word essay, or 5 paragraph essay how long would it take you ? Be honest.

I gotta write 2 before tomorrow and need some encouragement :(

Answer 1

It depends.

If it is something I am interested in, then no more than half an hour.

If not, then it would take much longer since I would have to research first THEN try to understand the topic before I start writing.

Answer 2

You can do them, both in a few hours. Just keep in mind that your paragraphs can be split into sections like Introduction (first state your point), Body (next three paragraphs supporting your intro), and Conclusion (reword your intro to stress your point).

Good luck!

Answer 3

u can do them both in like 2 hours, keep focused and mayb get off yahoo. lol. and start working and keep focused

Answer 4

About 45 minutes total. It helps to just bang out the essay quickly at first, not worrying about format or typos, and then going back later to edit into the correct parameters.
