Use the five-minute planning window well
Answer what the question is actually asking before deciding what each body paragraph will solve. A clear position and development plan are more reliable than a memorised template.
Keep one main idea per paragraph
Start with one topic sentence, then add a reason, explanation and example instead of mixing directions.
Make the example prove the point
An example does not need to be complex, but it must show why the point is plausible.
