conclusion
When referring to the end of something, "conclusion" is often used in formal contexts rather than using the word "end." When talking about a decision reached by reasoning, it is very common to use the phrase "come to a conclusion" or "reach a conclusion." In writing, a "conclusion" is specifically the final section of an essay or report that ties all the arguments together.

Chloe uses the hyperbole 'pulling my hair out' to express extreme stress over her academic writing, while Eleanor's use of all-caps reflects her technical illiteracy and straightforward approach to a complex task.
