Writing A+ Term Papers on AIDS

AIDS is a disease of recent origin which has no cure. Understanding of this disease is growing every day thanks to research, but it is still a complex and controversial subject, and there is much that is unknown. This can make writing essays about this disease complicated and difficult. You should be aware when there are multiple viewpoints about some area of the subject and where there is a broad consensus of experts. You can still have a strong thesis that argues a definite claim while still acknowledging where your research is inconclusive.

An essay on AIDS will be made stronger by following the basic guidelines for writing a good essay on any topic. Once you understand the structure of an academic essay, it will be cinch to write an A+ term paper. Here are some keys to remember when writing your AIDS essay:

  • Write a great thesis statement. Even though the thesis statement will only be one or two sentences, the thesis will be the most important one or two sentences in the paper. It is the cornerstone upon which the whole paper will be built. Your main idea should be expressed as clearly and concisely as possible. The best thesis will be the one you have the most evidence or the best logical arguments for. It’s a good idea to have someone else read your thesis to see if they find anything confusing or unclear about it.
  • Use active reading strategies when doing research. Active reading basically means writing notes as you read. Think of it as having a conversation with texts. Write down your reactions in a notebook or in book margins. Underline or copy down important passages you think might be good quotations for the essay. Active reading also means rereading anything you don’t fully understand. Read widely and try to recognize when a source is not going to be useful for your essay.
  • Write an outline before you write your first draft. This will be like a road map of your essay. List the main points, and put them in a logical order so that your argument flows smoothly from the introduction to the conclusion.
  • Reread your paper for errors in spelling, grammar, and logic. Have someone else read your paper as well. Often others will catch mistakes that we miss. 
  • Follow the proper citation format.
