There is quite a lot of uncertainty surrounding the Essay paper with each academy/mentorship program suggesting a separate technique.
While there is no formal guideline provided by FPSC on the subject, the examiner feedback reports can shed some light on what's expected.

The essay is supposed to judge a candidate's ability to explain a topic in a rational, well-researched, and comprehensive manner. The arguments you make must be grammatically-correct, relevant, and backed by research. Flowery and emotive expression isn't necessary.

3/ As soon as the Internet happened, s/w stopped being solely about computer-to-human interaction and started being about human-to-human interaction. We had new applications like the Web, email, IM and forums, all of which were abt humans communicating with 1 another through s/w.
If you’re thinking of moving to Hollywood or Broadway or pursuing a creative dream at all, you need to stop and consider - when will you quit? What’s too far? What sacrifice are you not willing to make?

Now I’m not talking about moral or ethical considerations - you need to establish boundaries and stick to them. I’m saying ask yourself what is more important than following my dream? Having a house? A steady paycheck? Long term relationships? A “normal” life?
