Hi all, for those of you who don't know. The extended essay is a 4000 word essay that is crucial to the IB Diploma. Failure to submit it would result in me not receiving a diploma. Extended essays must have very focused research questions which lend themselves to a great deal of analysis.
My Extended Essay first draft is due Monday, the 1st of September. That is in four days. I am having a really hard time finding a topic. That is all I need.
I am this far and without a topic because my initial subject was history, over the summer I decided I would change to English and that way I wasted four months. I also decided I will write my essay on Austen's Pride and Prejudice. So that is final. I have a few ideas too, but I can't seem to get anything concrete, I have been at this for a month now and it is driving me insane. PLEASE, someone help me figure out my topic so I can sit down in two days and write my essay in 48 hours non stop.
I was thinking of doing something on civility/propriety in the novel but there are so many things to look at that I just end up losin myself. I do think that the topic of civility/propriety is my first choice. I need this to be focused a lot more though. And there seem to be so many aspects of civility that I cannot find one to focus on. Or a couple that are similar. Or does excessive civility/too little civility ever cause something major in the novel? I am panicking and therefore losing all reasoning skills. Please, someone help me focus my statement/question.
This is me BEGGING.
Whoever helps me, I promise to owe you for eternity.
Please, please. HELP.
