Writing a great essay doesn't have to be hard --even though the ToK questions can seem really hard at first. They only seem hard when you don't know how to approach it. And (honestly) most people don't. This stuff confuses teachers and students sometimes.
If you're slightly confused by ToK this program will end that confusion. You'll be confident knowing you succeeded at ToK and you're ready for college essays.
I have combined all of the best tips I've developed (and gathered from others) into this one easy step-by-step process, so you can avoid wasting any time. You can relax knowing you're not falling into a trap of ToK-confusion. Honestly, you won't be at all confused after this. If you are, you can get your money back. No worries.
