Brill Essay Writing Contest 2019 has been closed and we have our winners!
We received a lot of your essays on the last day, so it took us a little bit longer to review all of them carefully. We must admit that almost all the essays were great, and it was really hard to choose only 3 of you. But we can’t break the rules, so welcome our 3 best essay writers:
- 1st place – Akanksha Mangat, essay on the topic “Life Skills That Everybody Needs to Learn”
- 2nd place – Bhola Choudhry, essay on the topic “How I would change the world”
- 3rd place - Blanka Peterkova, essay on the topic “The Most Inspiring Story You’ve Ever Heard”
Thank you all for writing and submitting your essays. You all did a great job and we really enjoyed reading your stories.
