Here are some steps and tips on how you can effectively manage your time especially
considering your individual writing style.
Prepare a schedule of your essay writing process especially considering the deadline and the amount of time you still have leading to it.
See to it that you set to at least three or two days, preferably more, before the deadline finishing your essay including final proofreading.
It is best that you can also submit your essay during this three or two days before the deadline so that you still have time to address any problem that might occur or crop up.
And of course, see to it that you will carry out your plan. But before you should proceed to plan, you should define your writing style.
DETERMINE YOUR WRITING STYLE
Knowing how you go about the writing process will enable you to create a plan that best suits you to be effective in this endeavour that you will carry out.
For example, your individual writing style may mean that you will be more effective if you provide a little bit more time to develop ideas instead of adding such time to researching.
TIME AND RESOURCESConsider the time you have and the resources you will need to look for.
WORKING STYLE AND SHARPEST TIMEIdentify how best you do tasks and when best you work. Examples include preferring to work in specific areas or not being particular about where to work and working best during the day or night.
