The second option is more direct and specific, so I’d choose that! It sounds better in my opinion.

1. START EARLY. You’ll regret procrastination.
2. Review twice, then review again, then rewrite.
3. Make sure your sources are all written down in some way — the day you accessed them, what they are, etc. Sources are incredibly important, and you definitely don’t want to be called a copier. (I forgot the proper word for this.)
4. If you’re not really nervous about it, ask someone — preferably someone good at writing, a teacher for LA or something — to check it over. Chances are you’ll miss some mistakes things no matter what, because you understand what you write.
5. This is a tip from my sister: Print out your essay if you can and check it over with a pen. If you read it on a screen, it’s easier to miss small mistakes.
6. And a tip from me: Read it aloud if you can. Sometimes you miss when things sound awkward because in your head it sounds fine, but when you read it aloud you can catch what sounds awkward easier.

Other than that, good luck!

Well, there’s tok in pretty much anything! So find something you like — Animals, technology, psychology — and then try to combine it with parts of tok. if you look hard, nearly everything can connect on some level.

It’s best to do it on something you’d actually like to talk about though. Mod one did one on feminism and such the like, and I did one with a friend about music and decisions. Some people did theirs’ on how clothing affects perception of others, it really depends on your interests!

also, to that one anon with the TOK essay question asking for a real life example, I’m sorry U___U;; I don’t know about mod one, but I can’t come up with anything decent.

Hey guys! you may or may not cover logical fallacies in your TOK class, but we sure did! These are really great especially for studying reason or problems of knowledge in general. Plus, you’ll understand political debates a lot better!
