ZoldyK [#2]Imagine getting 35% of your grade by just 1 essay
it sucks so much bro. i didnt get a good start to my research due to a death in the fam which took me months to get back to my normal school state and now I'm finishing this essay so poorly which will directly affect the rest of my life because of how critically unis look at this stuff.

I'm pursuing a three-year degree in Communication Sciences right now, which branches out into Journalism. This semester, an investigation-based essay/article is 50% of my grade. The other 50% is a written test.

id say at least its fun but it genuinely doesn't. at least the topic is something you know you will pursue later on which makes it better

writing an essay has nothing to do with journalism? You mean researching and studying a topic and writing a paper about things you learned has nothing in common with journalism? Oh boy, good luck with your future

no its the topic that bores me. not the writing itself.
edit: also this essay is 3000 words, most articles id end up writing end up being between 500 and 1500

I love the unnecessary competition it creates as well
“Oh look I do this stuff somebody told me to do much better than you, I’m so superior” yeah sure mate

I don't know why you're getting downvoted when you're undeniably correct. A close friend of mine got fired from his job as a janitor at the local McDonald's for getting a C on his essay about the consequences of internalized classism on adolescents between ages twenty-five to thirty-two.
R4BOCOP [#25]So... U will get a 35% of your mark for just an only essay? And you are mad? Bro they are literally throwing the diploma to your face

Wow, it's almost like if you become a journalist, you work for someone else and not everything you research is fun and games and about a topic you want to research. Maybe that'll jump start reality for you, but probably not
mystbz1 [#10]i do
if you go to a private school, then how tf is it the us education system's fault for your essay being worth 35% of your grade?
mystbz1 [#10]i do
if you go to a private school why are you blaming the national education system and curriculum. I'm sorry that a family member of yours died but it's not the education system, it's just your private school. Sure, private schools are still monitored, but that doesn't mean they're required to teach the national curriculum.
That being said. The US education system does suck balls. As does its healthcare.

what grade are you in
mystbz1 [#27]its a 10 page research essay
how long did you have to do it? Because that matters a lot. Also, did you ask your administration for accommodations?

The best that you can really do is demonstrate a thorough knowledge of the topic with good writing fundamentals. I can't tell you how many papers I wrote while I was in college that were about topics that didn't interest me in the slightest but if you at least display those things then you can at least rest easy after you turn in the paper.
DeBugg14 [#38]Us kids malding over their education meanwhile Asian chads giving one of their difficult entrance exams to get into University
Any American that moves to any developed Asian country wouldn't survive a month in their education systems. I feel bad for all Asians out there struggling with school because they are really difficult.
cheaterr [#39]atleast school in the US doesnt start at 6.30 AM
Varies from district to district. Many also take zero period classes that start like an hour before the regular school start time. Mine starts at 7:40, so zero period students doing jazz band or something have to be there by like 6:30.
