Is this essay format good?

<p>I found this basic essay format online, and I was wondering if you guys could give comments/improvements for it.</p>

<p>PARAGRAPH PURPOSE WHAT IT SHOULD CONTAIN
1 Introduction Thesis statement; state examples
2 Example 1 Topic sentence for example 1; explain example 1
3 Example 2 Topic sentence for example 2; explain example 2
4 Example 3 Topic sentence for example 3; explain example 3
5 Conclusion Thesis rephrased in a broader way; a look into the future </p>

<p>This is from sparknotes which is a pretty reputable source.</p>

<p>It’s alright…</p>

<p>Here’s a thread about premade essay formats. It’s good.</p>

<p>That’s the standard format, and there’s nothing wrong with it. Unless you’re an exceptional writer, stick with the standard since you might be asking for trouble trying to be “fancy.” Good luck!</p>
