A 1-page text usually contains 200 to 250 words in case you use 12-point Times New Roman, double spaced. This is the most common format for all the major citation styles.

It will take you 5 to 10 minutes to type one page on a keyboard. However, if you need to write a 1 page essay from scratch, it will take you not less than 1 to 2 hours.

A paragraph in academic writing should be at least 75 words long. So, a 1 page essay is to contain 2 to 3 paragraphs.

If you’re short of time, consider using a 5-paragraph structure for your 1 page essay. A simple outline consisting of an intro, three body paragraphs, and a conclusion will help you structure your thoughts quickly.
