When I write essays, I write all the things I want to say, and then group those things. Then separate out what to lead with and what to end with.
Groupings turn into paragraphs, and add the lead for a thesis and recap for the ending. Grouping or paragraphs by thought or chronology helps the all around flow and comprehension of the essay.
best of luck,
Same with matilda123, when I wrote my essay, I was writing a self profile at first then it turned into a semi-essay of some sort. So it turned out to be a big ramble of my past/current experiences then it some personal information as to what persuaded me to become a nurse (not because I wanted to be a nurse to help people because that is so cliche, but why I wanted to help people if you know what I mean). Then I looked at what I wrote and I grouped them in a time line. I organized my thoughts and took out the irrelevant stuff and worked on the relevant stuff and added on to it to make it "shine." I didn't even put an introductory paragraph since what ever I tried to write always turned out so "cliche!" But I did emphasize on the body of the text though.
Use strong words also like, excellent instead of good, stuff like that.
Then I just added a simple closing remark like:
"In closing, blah blah...excellent candidate for apposition in your Nursing School. I am very compassionate blah blah...strong science background and previous exposure to the medical field. blah blah...excellent support from colleagues, family, and friends throughout the years, and blah blah....I feel that I am ready for this next step in my career development. Thank you for this opportunity. blah blah....etc...."
