How do I outline a biographical essay?

For a 4 page essay how long should an outline be?

  • im writing an inclass essay tommorow for my english class and we need to have an outline. the essay has to be around 3-5 pages and how long shoiuld the outline be compared to that. 1? 2? 3? 4? pages?

  • Answer:

    It really depends on how detailed the outline is supposed to be. My teacher said we had to list all points, and my outlines were as long as the papers. But if you just need to list general topics/points, I'd say it should be the same length at most, at least two pages less. So if it's a three page paper, I'd say you need at least a page, a five page paper should have three pages of outlining, etc. Hope this helps!
