E.M. Forster home, school essay comparisant

For an in class writing assignment you have to understand the book. You should re-read the notes taken in class. Also you can make an outline on major umbrella topics of the book. The best thing you can do is look at the topics stated in class and see if you can be as descriptive as the notes taken on it. The difference of writing a short in class essay and a formal take home essay is huge. In a take home essay there is no memorization involved. If you know the basic outline of the book you're in the clear. For in class you have a limited amount of time to pack allot of information into a page or to. In a take home essay you have enough space to spread out your information. There also isn't a real time limit unless you save it to the last minute. Also at home you can concentrate more and elaborate more on your topic. On an in class essay, there is allot of distractions that you have to deal with. Also at home you can use your notes and book while in school you are limited to only your book.
