Ok so my essay is about assimilation into this country from Asia and I have had mixed reviews on it. What do you guys think about the topic?
It’s always hard to judge purely off the topic, without seeing the essay itself. However, the topic doesn’t matter as much as the execution of the essay itself. Think: did you write an essay only you can write? If your essay was put into a stack of random essays and handed to a friend/family member/peer, would they be able to pick yours out of the stack? If your name was replaced with someone else’s (lets say in a similar situation as you), would the essay be too specific to apply to them?
If the answer to any of those questions was a “no,” you should rethink either the way you approached your subject or the subject itself.
