Abstract
The title of the research is Students’ Proficiency of Cohesion in Writing. The main
purpose of this research was to find out the presence of cohesion in writing by Higher
Secondary level students. In order to do so, I collected the data from three Higher
Secondary Schools in Baglung District. The sample population consisted of 60 students
and they were selected by using random sampling procedure. After collecting the data, the

devices. It was found that the students studying in Baglung District were extremely poor
in the concept of the use of cohesive devices in writing.
