Assessed essay 2
The essay is 3500 words. Please follow the instructions in the Undergraduate Handbook when you submit your essay.
As there are only four of you writing a second assessed essay, I will agree individual titles with you all in person or over email. Please finalize essay titles with me by March 30, 2014.
