Help! What else can I add to my essay?

I have to write a 3-page essay about "Serendipity in Science", So far, I have 2-pages done. In the 2-pages, I have written about what scientists thought about serendipity's role in science, what I thought, and examples of serendipity in science. What more do you think I could write about? Thanks a bunch!

    Sounds like you may be repeating the word "serendipity" rather a lot in this essay. Although, seriously speaking, it also sounds like you've covered a lot of good ground.

    I can't think of any topics or new aspects you should cover as such, and it's hard to say what could be expanded or improved without reading your text. Just make sure you're not only talking about serendipity but contrasting it with other things, defining it clearly and bringing it nicely into relief for the reader. Just add stuff about how science normally works. Maybe don't jump directly into what scientists have said about serendipity but add an introductory paragraph where you delineate what it is against how science normally works and present one good example of it.

    Not a super helpful answer, but best of luck. You'll squeeze another page out it somehow.
