Actually, I think the key to getting a good grade is to keep the reader interested. At least that's the method I applied in college. If your teacher/professor isn't a car guy/girl, I'd avoid the Mustang paper. They will be more apt to pick apart your paper if they consider the material to be dry and boring. Throw him off. Talk about something no one else will. Keep his interest! Avoid current events. Everybody else will be thinking and writing current events. Another trick I learned is to write about THEIR interests. It's a shady trick, but who cares. You want an "A" don't you? When I was in highschool I had a similar assignment. The class was to write a short essay on your perfect man or woman. It had to be written in class and turned in at the end of the period. Everyone had written about how they wanted a Tom Cruise or a Heather Locklear. Not me. I wrote about how my dream girl was a 300 pound, Jamaican voodoo queen. We lived in a grass hut, etc., etc.. I was the only one to get an "A" on the assignment. During college I applied these stratigies. I did papers and public speeches on topics such as: My reenlistment in the military. (I told the story with humor and sarcasm.) An I D ten T form. (Put it together you get ID10T, or idiot) The swinging lifestyle Upgrading a car stereo The price of freedom (I actually made people cry with that speech.) You get the idea. Leave the beaten path. Be daring and original. Most importantly, keep the readers interest! Quote:
