This essay will examine both standpoints before concluding that I side with the former.
You are not going to receive a score for merely restating the discussion instructions and then giving an irrelevant opinion. You need to provide a relevant opinion that is based on a shortened thesis statement form. What are the reasons you will be discussing the support your opinion? Or, you may say that you side with a certain public opinion and then state the reason. That way you will achieve a proper score based on a completely developed restatement + writer's opinion + thesis statement. Always give the basis of the discussion before going into the discussion paragraphs.
The discussion format will cause a failing score for this essay. There are several things the writer fails to do in this essay:
1. The writer is not explaining the basis of the public opinion using the correct third person pronouns, showing a weakness in the GRA section.
2. The writer does not fully develop his personal opinion based on each public opinion. He must discuss his opinion of each public opinion to show that he understands the basis of each reason, but that he disagrees or that he agrees with it based on related reasons.
3. The writer's opinion is not properly presented in this essay given that it was presented as a part of the concluding paragraph. This will lead to an open ended essay, which always results in an automatic failing score since there is no proper summary conclusion presented.
