<p>so i'm submitting an essay under "topic of your choice"</p>
<p>should i include a mock essay question at the beginning of the essay?</p>
<p>THANKS</p>
<p>bump bump bump</p>
<p>I think that preparing such a question can be helpful in directing and disciplining your writing.</p>
<p>Oh wow, really? If I've already written my essay, do I need to put a mock question up there?</p>
<p>Perhaps prepare the question and see if your essay does answer it. If not, then modify your essay accordingly.</p>
