This test requires you to choose one of the classification or the process analysis essay. You
should, in dealing with the task precisely explain in your own word what the essay naturally
is.
Classification essay is a special type of formal writing, aimed at evaluating the categorizing
and generalization skills of the author. In order to write an award-winning classification
essay, the writer should single out the categorizing principle, according to which the objects,
referred to in the topic, can be divided into groups, organize objects into categories and
provide examples to support the classification.
1. Consider the topic carefully and identify the objects that must be categorized.
3. Write a solid thesis statement, which will mention the topic and the classification offered.
Using too many categories: if you do it, the idea and the criteria for the classification are very
likely to be disintegrated and your essay will turn into a simple enumeration, thus, failing to
show generalization skills.
Using not enough categories: it can result in the omission of an important type of objects.
Using no unified criterion for the classification: absence of the governing classification
principle will result in the lack of clarity.
Using unequal number of examples: it will result in making some categories less important
than the others.
