Comparison and Contrast


What are the different ways in which intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence contribute to the development of an undergraduate?

Intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence contribute to the development of an undergraduate in many different ways. Let us look at the intellectual intelligence first, competition is everywhere in the university campus, so we need to study hard to attain good academic results that makes intellectual intelligence so important to an undergraduate. Intellectual intelligence can helps an undergraduate to learn the knowledge better, think and response to the question faster, digest the knowledge faster and get better academic results. At the same time, emotional intelligence also plays a part to help an undergraduate. Assignments and projects are definitely not avoidable during the university study. Most of times you need to cooperate with your team/project members when you are doing a big project. The successful project needs not only everybody’s efforts but also united team members. Here emotional intelligence comes, it helps you on how you should react when you hear your team member have different opinions with you, how you should communicate with them when you disagree their point of views, how you should control your temper when you really angry about your teammates... etc, actually it helps you on how to handle many situations that you could have being in. It also makes your study more effective. So as an undergraduate student we need both intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence.

Thanks, Ma Li, for posting this. It's well organized, with info concise and clear. My criticism is that you have three main language type problems, and they're all issues we've discussed recently. First, there is a glaring "run on" in the third/fourth sentence.(And there's another one later in the paragraph!) Next, you inconsistently use pronouns ("we" or "you"? which would be better?). Finally, there are some striking problems with verb forms. Do you see what I'm pinpointing here?

Still, I really think the essence of this paragraph is clear, and well-supported.

Cheers!

Hi, i think you should avoid question form in the academic essay.
