At school, my teacher is always going on about structure in essays. He says that it is my fundamental flaw. For instance, should you put theory before the actual descriptions of what is happening currently in a question about external stability etc.

What do you guys do in essay writing in regards to structure. How do you structure your essays. How about using diagrams and theory?

How about you peeps post some of your essays and some people will give you pointers...

I remember there being a few threads ages ago being written regarding general advice. I remember writing a long post regarding essays.

Perhaps do a search

just go straight into asnwering the question but define all the main points in the question, then backup your arguments/points with relavant statistics and show how it works for a diagram etc, you don't really need and intro, but i always seemed to do a conclusion with a quote or statistic.

Structured essays are just essays that are well structured as in like do not go on about one topic and than go on about another topic For example.

Topic 1 How economies differ ... jus write a whole paragraph on how economies differ and thats it, do not go into another topic in the same paragraph.
So each topic have a different papragraph. If You cannot understand what i am trying to say reply and i will let you know! :) And also, ensure you use alot of economics terms and theories as that will boost ur marks :)
