    One exclamation point is sufficient.

    Has your instructor told you how to write an essay? If not, here are some basic techniques.

    1. Take a position – You either agree or disagree.
    2. List some reasons why your position is the best position
    3. At the end, restate your position and point out your argument as to why your position is the best one.

    Being clever is more important than being beautiful
    1. Clever people do not have to work as hard as people who are not clever
    a. Clever people are better educated
    (i) Better educated people make more money and do not have to do as much physical work as uneducated people
    b. Clever people know how to spend money wisely
    c. Clever people are not fooled very easily
    d. Clever people do not get sick as often as others because they know how to take better care of their bodies
    2. Sum up your arguments
    a. In conclusion, I agree that it is more important to be clever than beautiful. Clever people tend to be richer, live longer, and are more in control than people who are not clever.

    For each point listed above, go into some detail. Give examples. Make a strong case for each point.
