From Confusion to Conclusion: How to Write a First-Class Essay in Life and Health Sciences

Why do you need to read this book? Because you are at university. Because you are a student of life and health sciences. Because you have to write an academic assignment. It’s as simple as that. Academic writing with its complex rules is hard to master fast. Essay titles can be confusing and you never know what your lecturers expect of you. You are constantly told to be more critical, but nobody bothers to explain what critical writing actually is. And all that tedious referencing! Why does every lecturer demand that you know everything? In this book, Vlad Mackevic (BSc, MA), a First Class graduate, shares his experience acquired whilst studying and working as an academic writing mentor. This book will help you answer the following questions:

• How do you break down and answer a set essay question?
• How do you create an easy-to-answer essay question for a free topic assignment or a dissertation?
• How do you write critically? And what does it even mean?
• Why do I need to write my introduction at the end?
• How do you make the research process as efficient as possible?
• How do you reference?

And many more. Enjoy reading and writing!
