How to Write a Paper 1 Introduction (Without Overthinking It)
Writing your introduction should be quick, simple, and efficient. Ideally, it should take less than 5 minutes of your exam time.
To avoid overthinking or getting stuck chasing the "perfect" sentence, use a straightforward formula that keeps you focused and fluent.
Trying to craft the perfect introduction often wastes time and breaks momentum.
The trick is to write something clear, purposeful, and structured, so you can move on to the analysis where the marks really are.
The Formula: 5 Simple Steps
Basic details
Include the author’s name, the title of the text, and the text type.
Brief summary
A short, descriptive sentence summarizing what happens in the passage (no analysis).
Unique Big Picture observation
A fresh or insightful comment on tone, message, structure, or something stylistically interesting, keep it general and non-technical.
Clear thesis
