    For starters, get yourself off the Student Room

    Procrastinator's nightmare!

    ... and I suppose it depends on what you're writing it on... but I personally would churn out a first draft so you've at least got something to hand in if you don't get anything else done because stuff comes up. Then go back and improve what you've written as much as you can for tomorrow

    I agree, get off Student Room. Keep a drink beside you, turn your phone off, shut the door and simply; Work, work and work! Good luck x

    The only important tip is that you get off TSR and focus on the essay if you want to finish.

    Writing is often a very productive way of writing an essay.

    We have all been in this situation.

    Step 1. Disconnect your router (Unless your essay involves relevant points that can be found on the internet).
    Step 2. Turn off your phone.
    Step 3. Get all your books that you need and sit down in a quite place with no distractions. I sit at the kitchen table.
    Step 4. Have some brain food and hydrate with water! This is a key part! Brain food consists of things like bananas, porridge, etc.
    Step 5. Get cracking!

    Hope this has helped and I wish you luck!

    It took you 2 hours to write 1 page. You started the thread 13 hours ago, so your essay is due in 11 hours. It will take you another 18 hours to write the rest of the essay at the current rate.

    There's only one thing for it: increase the font size.

    Time to pretend you have a terrible illness which means you can't go in tomorrow.

    1. why did you leave a 10 page essay till now?
    2. I may be a hypocrite (leaving 500 word essays until the night before) but 10 pages?!
    3. increase font and margins size
    4. close this page

    British efficiency has hardly been exemplified in this thread, dear.
