PULL DOWN THE CURTAINS-HOW TO WRITE A CONCLUSION?

Hey! What about watching a movie for a couple of hours and then coming across an end which is not at all impactful?

This is exactly the case when you are writing the conclusion of your assignment. No matter how impactful or critically evaluated your entire work is! Unless your assignment has a convincing conclusion, there are high chances that your professor may not be impressed! You may be confused that although you have done such a well-researched work, how is it that your friend has scored more than you???

Hey it is ok! Do not panic so much! Here is a helping hand for you to know how to write a conclusion. Firstly, you need to know that the Conclusion section of a paper is supposed to be the final impression. It is your last chance to make your point to be reached to your professor.

Here are few guidelines which you can follow to improve your style of writing a conclusion:

• It should not be just a Tail of an Assignment!!!!  --> Although it comes at the end yet you should give special focus
• 10% of the total assignment
• Needs to have at least 4 or 5 strong sentences
• Review the main analysis and your understanding from it --> DO NOT SUMMARISE THE HEADINGS AND SUB HEADINGS
• Try to link the conclusion with the assignment title and your thesis statement
• DO NOT add any new materials. REMEMBER! U will not like the entry of a new film actor at the end of a movie!!! Similarly no new point or angle in the conclusion

How to write a conclusion- Different styles

• Logical Conclusion:  Mostly apt for the argumentative type of assignments, Logical Conclusion, is where two or more than two sides of a particular issue
• Rhetorical Question based Conclusion: This is considered to be one step shorter in case of providing a logical conclusion. In fact, instead of ending the conclusion with a specific note, you can leave the concerned reader with a particular question as far as Rhetorical Question based Conclusion is concerned. This actually can lead him/her to derive his/her own conclusions.
• Opinion or Speculation based Conclusion: You will be happy to know Opinion or Speculation based Conclusion is good enough for those assignments where the students stands out unable to emerge with a clear decision or specific answer in relation to the research done. However, please note that it does mean that you will write a vague conclusion!!! This kind of conclusion actually opens more scope to the writer in providing more of his/her opinion.
• Recommendation based Conclusion: One of the best kinds of conclusion is recommendation based Conclusion where the writer not only concludes based on his/her understanding but also provides a set of recommendations. The recommendations are given with a motive to eradicate or lower the negative impact of the issue/issues that is/are identified.  
• Summary Conclusion: Sometimes conclusions are expected to be simple re-statement of the done thesis. Summary Conclusion simply summarises the main points. Please note try to avoid such kind of conclusion if not asked because it does not show your ability of understanding.
