Critical Thinking: This is something I would say that I struggle in. It is the ability to stay within a topic consistently throughout a paper. Also, points must be relevant and supportive of the main idea. Many times I find that I add a lot of un-essential pieces to my paper that appear as filler. They just are there but remain unconnected from my topic and the argument that I present. This is an area I have been working on.
Writing: This is also a difficulty I have. For me it is hard to stay within the page limit for essays and research papers. I usually exceed the amount due to either being too wordy or adding a lot of extra parts. What I try and do, and what is appreciated by teachers, is to cover the topic and stay within the amount of pages. Still, I haven't been within a page limit in my last ten essays I would say. Something has gotta give!
