The topic: university students and procrastination.

Thesis statement: University students often procrastinate due to a combination of stress, lack of motivation, and difficulty managing time. This thesis statement outlines the main causes of procrastination among university students.

The three topic sentences that follow the thesis statement are:

  1. University students are often under immense pressure to succeed, and this can lead to procrastination.
  2. University students may lack motivation to complete their assignments, resulting in procrastination.
  3. University students may struggle with time management and prioritization, leading to procrastination.

These three topic sentences each align with the thesis statement and provide further detail on the three main causes of procrastination that university students face. Each topic sentence can then be further developed by providing evidence and examples. This can be done through research, interviews, or personal experience. By providing evidence and examples, we can further explore the topic of university students and procrastination and how these three main causes contribute to it.
