Question

Which topic is specific enough for a good problem-and-solution essay?

a. overpopulation in the western hemisphere
b. famous paintings
c. world hunger
d. lack of support for your school’s dress code

Answer 1

I would say that D is the best, you can provide some real solutions. And make  valid arguments.

Answer 2

The fourth alternative is correct (D).

A problem and solution writing should be done under a specific theme, not something overarching, such as hunger and overpopulation, which involve several variables.

The lack of support for the dress code is something that can be solved through specific measures that should be suggested in the essay.
