<blockquote rel="appledeuce"><blockquote rel="kindred">Hi @appledeuce --
Am not sitting anymore but if i were to answer the question you posed, I'd say yes you may use the first person pronoun in your essay response.
The rule avoiding first person pronoun applies strictly on academic writing. Thus, third person is most desirable in that context.</blockquote>
Hi @kindred,
Appreciate the advice but it got me a bit confused. In your first paragraph, you said its okay to use "I" but in the second paragraph you said third person is most appropriate. sorry, I haven't had sleep for almost 24 hours now so excuse my shunganess haha

I think what Kindred is saying is, pwede gamitin 'yung "I" for the agree-disagree question sa writing ng General Module. Pero sa writing ng Academic Module, the use of "I" should be avoided. 🙂
