My writing process
Most people's writing process consists of brainstorming, drafting, writing, editing and then finally publishing. Mine however looks something more like this: procrastinate, procrastinate, procrastinate, write, hand in. While this does sound like the worse writing style in the history of written communication it does work for me. This is because during all the procrastination i will keep running the prompt through my head, subconsciously working on either a paragraph, a page or the entire paper. Doing this helps me be able to sit down and write entire papers in one night. I have to be honest, writing like this does leave little room for improvement because I do not actually dedicate time to writing. It has also caused a number of stressful nights and afternoons coupled with an extremely tired school day the next morning. If I had to recommend one style over the other, I would recommend the one that your teachers have been beating into your head since the day you picked up your first pencil.

Weird, I have the same writing process. And for the most part, it works. But yeah it does end up being overwhelming and stressful sometimes. Which is when I usually just decide not to write essays or something.
