Let’s plan to have a 'The Extended Essay Summer'

The Extended Essay may appear to be a chore or something you'll put off until later in the summer. However, it will quickly build up on top of you, which is something you do not want.

Intriguing and practical:

Meet people who might be able to assist you with your research. Write 20 nice notes to your parents' contacts, their friends' contacts, your instructors' contacts, researchers' contacts, local universities' contacts, and website owners' contacts. Even if you only meet a couple of them, you should be prepared to ask intelligent questions. These are referred to as Primary Sources, and guess what? Examiners enjoy them.

Minor but critical:

Make sure your research question is correct. Try to come up with a two-sentence response. Can you do it? Do you have the proof you'll need to prove those two sentences? Check with some people to see whether they understand the question and the response as well.

Break the EE down into manageable stages:

It may or may not break down into these roles depending on how you've worked and what you're doing, but once you've done the research and gathered the material, it may or may not (and possibly even in this order.)

1. Write the final paragraph. Yes. It's only a draught, after all. Now you'll see what the rest of the essay is trying to accomplish. Get someone to ask you some tough questions about it – what do you need to demonstrate and explain?

2. Create an introduction. Yes. Because you should now be aware of everything - why the issue is important, and what your query entails. It's a simple start.

3. Create an outline for the essay's body. Step by step, please. Because knowing how each paragraph is supposed to lead to your conclusion makes writing a lot easier. 

4. Arghhh - do I have to compose a draft? Because if you give a buddy a draft, they can use the criteria to grade it nearly as correctly as an examiner. So they'll be able to tell you exactly what you need to do right now.

5. Create an abstract.

Less anxiety: 

Do you recall the last time you started an assignment early and completed it without feeling rushed or under pressure? You don't, of course. However, I've heard it's similar to receiving a coupon for 50 CAS hours.

Performance: 

Yes, it may seem unbelievable to some of you, but increasing the amount of time and effort you put into a job usually results in a better outcome. Isn't this a fascinating world we live in?! You should probably think about this as well when doing your EE.
