Examine thesis alone and ensure it is complete and well developed. The thesis statement should be placed in the introduction paragraph as the last sentence.
Define Antithesis
Points out a counterargument. It should strengthen the argument to consider the opposing viewpoint. This shows readers that the author is aware and has considered other viewpoints. If possible, an answer to the antithesis should also be included. This is not always possible.
Define Pro Point #1
