STEP 4: End Strong
End your essay by shining a new light on the main point you started with, or leave the
reader with something interesting to think about. Here are three examples:
Medicine is a very honorable profession, since it seeks to help those who need it the
most. I am looking forward to becoming a pre-med major in college and taking the
fi rst step toward becoming a doctor.
Seeing people enjoy my cooking is one of the best feelings in the world. Becoming a
chef is one way I can spread this joy to many more. Hopefully someday I will even
have my own restaurant named after me!
Being a police offi cer, like my father, has always seemed like a dream. Going to college
will not only make this dream possible, but it will also help me to reach my lifelong
goal.
