I know it's a little off topic, but a series on language, literature and lang/lit extended essays would be cool.

The main pitfall, that I've experienced is unknowingly coming up with point sentences that don't have ideas. I used to write point sentence with very specific ideas that were all similar. Ideas need to be simple, different from each other, but all answering the question. This will allow for an all rounded response. Can you please make a video with how to efficiently come up with ideas, from an extract?

would you fail if you understand the text wrong but still have arguments and did an okay job supporting them?

Hi! I was wondering what length an excellent body paragraph would have if handwritten and double-spaced (skipping a line). Thank you!

[MsTan-mbiw]

Is there a way to show good example of body paragraphs for paper one. Possibly use the op ed by Leonard Pitts.
