  2. Compare and Contrast Essay • If you were assigned by your professor to make a compare & contrast essay, you need to select two comparable subjects and conduct an analysis of existing similarities and differences. • As soon as you are finished with your selection of the subjects, you may proceed to establishing your main idea and work on the structure of the paper. • The method we will explore now is called formulating the argument.

  3. Step #1. Select the distinct subjects that are comparable and can be contrasted. • The first thing to do is to choose the subjects which will serve as a base for your work. • They should have similar features but be different enough to make a meaningful comparison.

  4. For example: • Two films; • Two artists; • Two significant events in history; • Two professional athletes.

  5. Step #2. Write about all similar and different features of your subjects. • Let’s suppose that you have your subjects. • Now you have to find all possible similarities and differences about them. • For example, if you are writing about two movies, you may find that they both explore the same theme but show it from different perspective.

  6. Step #3. Make your thesis statement. • Your thesis statement should make the readers understand why your comparison is important. • You should include all this information in only one sentence. • It is recommended for the writer to focus on three points of comparison and continue with exploring them.

  7. For example: • If you compare cities, you may write: “Both London and Prague are good cities to start a career but there are differences in housing, job perspectives and entertainment”. • In other cases you may identify that the first subject is more desirable. For example, “Music players made by Company A are more reliable, have powerful battery and bigger screen”.
