Philosophy essays are in the same area as a law essay, psychology essay, or a political essay when it comes to an actual challenge to have to write. Chances are you wouldn’t really come across them unless your course requires it or its in your field of study. If you actually chose to do a philosophy essay then you should’ve really known what you’re getting into. No one says “Philosophy sounds really neat! I’ll pick that!” It’s the same as saying “I don’t know any philosophy essay topics, but it’ll be way past cool anyway!”
