Approaches to a Compare and Contrast Essay

• While composing a compare and contrast essay, you
  can take any one of the two most popular
  approaches. Not all of us are professional paper
  writers or custom writers, so knowing about the
  two approaches will help you gain some amount of
  expertise on compare and contrast essays.
•  Simply put, while the introduction and the
  conclusion for both the approaches for compare
  and contrast remains the same, the body
  paragraphs are structured differently for the two
  approaches.

Block Approach

• The block approach for compare and contrast essay
  follows the rational pattern of discussing the
  main points in the light of one element and then
  the other. For example, let us assume there are
  two elements, namely A and B, that form the
  mainframe of the compare and contrast essay and
  there are three points of similarity and contrast
  among them. In the block approach, you will have
  to discuss points (i), (ii), and (iii) with
  respect to A in the first three body paragraphs,
  and the same points with respect to B in the next
  three body paragraphs.

Point-by-Point Approach

• The point-by-point approach is a more
  comprehensive approach for the composition of
  compare and contrast essays. In case of the two
  elements of A and B that are the main objects of
  comparing and contrasting in your essay, you will
  need to structure the body paragraphs of the
  essay according to the points that they are
  similar or different in.
