How can you study for the writing part of the Bergen County Academies?
I studied math/sample tests… but I’m not sure about the writing section. Should I time myself but then I don’t know what to write as a practice essay …
You should read. Reading and comprehending is the most important in the writing test. You are given around 45 minutes, and within that time, you must read the passage, and ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS. Don’t skip any details, support your answers with quotes, have a good introduction and conclusion, with three supportive paragraphs. Five paragraphs is your main goal, non-off topic and well written. They don’t accept any 4 or under, 5 or 6. Make sure your verb tense is perfect too. Good luck, I’m taking the test as well.

Performance evaluations are generally done to evaluate the job performance of an employee of the respective company. This process is generally conducted by the employer of the company to ensure that the job is done properly. Before the beginning of a project, normally the employee sets a number of goals before himself, which he aims to fulfill.
In the performance evaluation it is required to review the goals set in the last evaluation. If it has not been done yet, it is the best time to evaluate. What is all the more important is that, the employee must be sure of the goals. And then ensure whether they have been able to fulfill the expectations or not.
Next, you should fill in the performance evaluation paper according to the instructions. These are often numerical and needs to be filled by numbers. Penning down your comments is another good idea. While doing so, you can point to various examples and substances. It is a good idea to share this evaluation paper with your employee in a private meeting.
As this is going to be shared, use civil languages while putting down the comments. Make sure that your employer understands your logic and provides you with an opportunity for the necessary feedback. Chalk down the goals you want to set for the next term or year. And make sure that the employer agrees on them and it is a joint decision.
Generally the signature of the employer is required. These were the rules about how to write a performance evaluation. The following are the method of answering a performance evaluation.
First, consider the feedback you have received. This must be done not only from your own point of view but also from think about how to approach the goals by your work.
Generally a performance evaluation comes with a response letter too. But if the employer and the employee are in agreement with the goals then no response is required. Write your answers in relation with the goals, and if any of the goals are left unfulfilled, then it is a good time to reconsider them.
Once you are done with them, recheck it and sit with the supervisor to go through it, if you feel that it will boost the team work up. If there were disagreements regarding the answers goals or focus then ensure that there is clarity in it as it will influence the entire term. Performance evaluations are good because it opens the forum for a better discussion for what your team is working for.
The feedback should be clear and positive toned to ensure that it is a constructive one and there will be better chances for the goals being fulfilled.

Article Marketing remains one of the best ways to reach your target audience online. By writing and submitting quality articles to article directories you will generate highly relevant traffic and increase your sales in the same process.
Whenever you are going to be writing articles for the Internet there are a lot of different places that you can go to get ideas on what to write about. However, the best ideas are going to be the ones that people want to hear about. You have to know what is hot and what is not. Only then are you going to be able to write a quality article that people are going to want to hear about.
The best place to look, first of all, is on search engines. On search engines, you can take a look at what keywords are searched for the most. Thus, you are going to be able to get an idea of what most people want to hear about. Of course, keep in mind that just because something is the most searched thing, does not make it a great article to write about.
For example, if the number one most searched thing on the web is ”dogs” and the second more searched thing is ”cats”, then you should write about which one you like the most. If you are not a dog fan, then there is no reason to write about it just because it’s ranked higher than cats. You are going to get a better response when you write about something that you like vs. when you write about something that you do not care about. Your knowledge is power so use it to your advantage.
After you pick out what you are going to be writing about, you are going to need to pick out what you are going to write about under that topic. This is where on-line forums come in. Visit forums that have to do with your topic that you are writing about and read what other people are talking about. Usually, you will be able to get a pretty good idea of what topics are most popular under the topic you are writing about. Say you are writing about video games, and you go to a video game thread and see that the Nintendo Wii is one of the most talked about video game topics. Then you could choose to do a topic on the Nintendo Wii, because people are going to want to read about it.
There are tons of different ways to get inspired, but the main thing that you have to remember is to not force yourself to write about something that you are not into. When you do, it will show in your work. People are not going to want to read articles that are not entertaining. If they are reading about this topic, that means that they are into it, and it usually helps if the writer is into as well.
To Your Success!

Shilpa to Write An Autobiography

A comparative essay is usually a requirement that many high school and college students dread. It is an assignment that a lot of students would rather avoid. But such task should not be a drag if you know how to write a comparative essay. This article will provide some basic steps or guides on how to write an essay.
First, read the assigned materials and if possible, read also the references of the given topic. After having gathered and read all the relevant information, the first step in writing a comparative essay begins. The student or writer, before learning how to write a comparative essay, must initially learn how to write an essay draft. The process begins by organizing one’s thoughts by writing them all down. Do not worry if the thoughts on the draft essay seem jumbled or not in sequence. They could be arranged in the final draft later. Once you have finished writing the final draft, do take the time to review it for at least several times because it is going to be the basis of the comparative essay.
A comparative essay must first contain a short and general overview followed by comparisons and opposing viewpoints of the assigned topic or argument. One important rule on how to write a comparative essay is to refrain from presenting a biased viewpoint. Opposing arguments of the topic must be presented in a neutral manner and the facts that can easily be verified by authoritative references. Personal viewpoints or comments can be included in the comparative essay, but they must be clearly established as such and must be kept at the minimum.
One of the things you will learn on how to write an essay is the style of presenting the arguments of the topic. Basically, there are two types or manner of presenting the facts and viewpoints. The first type of the comparative essay will start on a topic; then present the opposing viewpoints on that topic, after which the essay will proceed on another topic and present that topic’s pros and cons. Proceed with this manner until all the topics and related views have been presented. The second type of comparative essay is to present all the arguments and topics as a whole then choose a point of comparison then present all the opposing viewpoints together.
No matter which style is chosen, a summary or conclusion must then be presented afterwards. If any conclusion is to be drawn, it must be based on the facts presented in the comparative essay. Writing a comparative essay might not be easy but it should not be hard either. The basic requirements needed in how to write an essay includes organization of thoughts, critical thinking and some artistic flair.
For additional guides on how to write a comparative essay one can go to the school library or better yet, surf online to search for it. It is also advisable to look at some of the comparative essay done by others in order to see and get a feel of how a comparative essay is written.

Oh oh, here it is, the hardest part of registering on that new Online Dating Site. Youve finished filling in page 1, the boring contact and password details. They said that would be a matter of seconds, but it took you 15 minutes and a cup of coffee (or maybe a red wine or mug of beer) just to think up that clever username.
Then you got through page 2, all the multiple choice and check the boxes stuff; you’re a non-smoking, social-drinking, divorced, 34 year old, with 2 kids (dont live at home), no stated religion, no disclosed income, who loves dogs but doesn’t have one, and is definitely not a vegetarian.
But now youve been staring at page 3 for over 30 minutes and another coffee (or couple of wines, etc) and you have developed a sudden understanding of, and sympathy for, writers suffering from the dreaded writers block. Because now youre being asked to write a few descriptive sentences about yourself, and that is not easy.
How do you announce to all those beautiful women members just how amazing and wonderful you are without appearing to be a braggart. You know you are the catch of the day, but how do you put it in words so that they will all know it. Finally you write I’ll tell you more later, and go take a long shower.
Well it doesn’t need to be that way. Try doing this:
1. Don’t try to write your autobiography, a few simple lines revealing one or two aspects of your deep and multidimensional character will suffice. In other words KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid). You don’t want to tell her your life story in your profile, or youll have nothing to tell her later when you are getting to know her. Just say a couple of things that any woman will love to know.
Example: “I am a hard worker and love my job, but I know how to set it aside and enjoy quality time with the woman I love. Now I just have to find her.” This tells her you are stable, secure in your job, romantic, devoted and caring, plus you are looking for her. What more does she need to know?
2. Be specific, not general. General is boring, specific paints a picture.
Example: Dont write “I love a good movie”, write “One of my favourite moments was watching Body Heat when Kathleen Turner said to William Hurt ‘Youre not very bright are you? I like that in a man.’” Now (assuming she is old enough to have seen Body Heat) she knows you have a sense of humour and humility, you like good movies, and she can picture herself enjoying a good, fun bit of verbal sparring with you. She is bound to want to know more.
3. Be personal and dynamic, not impersonal and passive.
Example: You do not “like to look into a womans eyes”, you “ache to gaze into the eyes of your true love, to seek the depths of her soul, and to see the world as only she can see it”.
The above 3 examples are all you need for a complete profile that will have her begging for more.
Now one last point. No matter how much work you have to go to, write your profile in good English. Spell every word correctly, use perfect grammar and complete sentences. Bad English does not prove you are not intelligent, but it does leave it open to question.
You profile is what will cause every woman on that dating site to either be keenly interested in you or to pass you over like a bad case of the flu. Bad English will cause her to totally miss or overlook all the clever and catchy thoughts you have expressed, especially if she herself does not speak English as her native tongue. How can a Chinese woman look up in her dictionary and translate your words if you don’t spell them correctly? How can she know you ache to gaze into her eyes if you write that you “ake to gais into her ize”?
Now, if you follow these simple tips, you can write that great profile in the time it takes to drink one cup of coffee or one glass of wine, then quickly move on to searching for the new love of your life.
