I think it's complete bullcrap that schools encourage students to stuff their essays with filler. Even as a supposedly excellent writer (teachers' words), my essays often had lower grades purely due to them "not being long enough". There is nothing wrong with writing short and straight to the point as long as you don't eliminate valuable information in the process. Got to the point where I wouldn't even turn essays in because I couldn't figure out how to bullshit enough, so to speak.

I agree. I mean, what, do you expect me to write like Christopher Paolini? No, no, no, I like being laconic. Being straight to the point is just better than going through filler, anyways.

I just write big when I write essays. Or use any tactic I can to make them seem bigger. I try not to BS as much as possible, but sometimes it have to.

The only thing where there is no guarantee of grading. You could write a perfectly sufficient essay and you'll still get a B or C because they didn't like it.

I somehow always managed to get my essays handed in too late so they were never graded >->

I had to do an essay again and again because they decided, "Welp, this sucked."
