This is my Duke research essay, I was wondering if I should take off the last paragraph. Over the past summer, I worked a full-time job at the USDA's Russell Center in an Enterococcus laboratory. The premise of my research was to monitor the spread of multiple Enterococcus strands through the use of different types of media, polymerase chain reaction and gel electrophoresis. Enterococcus is a gram-positive bacteria, can cause urinary tract infections and meningitis, and can be treated with ampicillin and vancomycin. By working in this laboratory, I learned the basics of the old-fashion, work ethic: waking up at 7 o' clock, working over-time, hauling materials and many other tasks. Moving boxes from one room to the next may seem tedious, but at least I got to stretch my legs. Although I was mostly supervised, I know that in the future, after multiple years of perfecting, I will have the chance to work on my own and possibly write my own paper. Brandon Maffei

Well, I think this looks like agenda and summary rather than a research essay, doesn't it? If the topic is to tell you to provide some information about any research you have participated, then I guess this would probably be okay. However, if they ask you to write about what you like about this research or what you have learn about it, i think you are probably off the topic a little bit. angela Angela Wang, EssayForum Contributor
