Could someone give me a basic format and organization scheme that should be used to answer the "propose a solution" and/or argument prompts?

For propose a solution I'm thinking (with the help of Kaplan 😉) ...
I. Intro
II. Solution
III. Counterexample/Resolution
IV. Conclusion

How's that?
 
Don't ramble and diverge onto superfluous tangents in the intro and don't introduce new information in the conclusion. Part of success and time management on the essay section is to be as concise with word choice.
 
From what I understand they aren't doing argumentative essays anymore...at least not at the moment.
 
The essays mostly involve critical thinking, problem solving and opinion. Think of things like "what would you do to solve world hunger" stuff like that :laugh:
