 1 **Focus on your thesis** One of the most important parts of your essay is your thesis. If it’s a weak one, you’ll automatically get a lower score. Make sure that your thesis statement is clear and to the point. When you write your essay, make sure that it lives up to the claims that your thesis statement makes. In your conclusion, you should also at some point rephrase your thesis and include a tie-in to a larger universal idea.  1 **Focus on your thesis** One of the most important parts of your essay is your thesis.

 8 **Read books on your own time** If you like to read in your spare time, then this one shouldn’t be an issue for you. However, if you’ve never really taken up pleasure reading as a hobby, maybe just start with one book a month. Reading books outside of class not only gives you more outside sources to use in your argumentative essay, but also helps expand your vocabulary. Reading more challenging books than you usually would is also a good idea since stepping out of your comfort zone in literature can help you discover new styles of writing and topics that you usually wouldn’t have found otherwise. Non-fiction is better for gaining more supporting evidence for essays, but as long as you’re reading more than you usually are then you’re on the right track!  8 **Read books on your own time** If you like to read in your spare time, then this one shouldn’t be an issue for you.
