How to Prepare English Essay for CSS / PMS? By: Iqra Shaukat (46th CTP)

Essay means ‘attempt’ to translate your ideas into words. There is a myth before writing actual essay we must be well versed in the hard-core knowledge of contemporary topics, but the reality is; it is skill which can be learned from practice only. Now the BIG QUESTION is how to practice it, especially in case of non-availability of evaluator, for this I recommend better to start from scratch through the 3-body essay, i.e. introduction, body and conclusion. You can find this sort of short essay on daily basis from daily diaries (DAWN, EXPRESS TRIBUNE or THE NEWS INTERNATIONAL) in form of editorials and opinions. The only way to learn it at your own is to paraphrase it on daily basis. I guarantee this will serve the purpose well. Through this regular exercise your expression will improve, you will learn new vocabulary words and the usage of words both in connotative and denotative. You must consult one basic English grammar book (I consulted ‘To the point English by Mian Aftab’ in the beginning later on I consulted ‘Exploring the world of English by Sadaat ), while practicing you must know the basic rules of grammar. The bottom line is; one paragraph on daily basis – the mixture of theory and practice- can be handy to horn your English writing skill.

OIC, A Completely Failed and Unsuccessful Organization

Islam is the religion of peace, but there is not a single successful platform where Muslim states can settle their disputes through peaceful means.

A platform for the solidarity among the Muslim States is a need of hour , where, Muslim rulers have ruled by and large on all over the world for centuries but unfortunately from last hundreds of years, Muslims are apprised by non-Muslims around the world . In order to redress the grievances of Muslims, an organisation must be formed for the collective voice of the Muslim World like United Nation Organization, European Union or ASEAN.
