also if you feel strongly against the topic justify your stand in the intro para and then wright against the topic
but there is a huge if here


@skeptic

can you pleae tell what were the instructions in older papers

[Muddassir]

I think one must prepare a skeletal structure for the essay which can be maintained irrespective of the topic. This will help you save lot of time and the essay top be more organised.

one can think of dividing the essay into the following parts:
1. Introduction
2. Brief description.
3. support or negate the topic.
4. Give supportive evidence.
5. Add what you expect will happen in the near future or after a long tiem pertaiing to your stand on the topic.
6. Conclude.

This will also help in jotting down points before you start writing as per the skeletal structure.

Hi,
Can anyone point me to any journals/ magazines which may sum up the happenings in the year 2007(preferably from India's perspective). We could use some data in the XAT essay.

Thanks

can sum1 tell me what exactly does this mean : if youth knew, if age could ???

it means...that people at the prime of their youth dont understand the relevance of certain things...maybe the morality vs practical thingy, and the way we run behind materialistic things...but dont try and serve the society.
'if age could' means 'if aged people cud'...acc to me...so means that we wont be able to do what we want to(u can refute that too in the essay) in our old age coz we would be dependent,health,ability to help others would be diminshed.

some one plz confirm the bakar i have written..!

With age comes wisdom, but also the ability to take risks and action declines. It is the opposite case with youth i.e though they have risk taking ability in abundance, they lack the wisdom to generate new ideas.

Hence, each one is lacking an important quality to generate positive results.
