<p>Is it bad to use extremely opinionated words such as “absolutely” or “completely” in your essay? Will this fake passion be over-zealous?</p>

<p>Also, is it generally better to take a yes/no stance to the question, or will a third opinion from a different perspective make your essay “unique” and stand out?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>From what I’ve read it is good to at least acknowledge the counter argument, but I think you’re supposed to refute it. I definitely think you need a yes/no stance. There are some good ACT essay guides on this forum, they’re very helpful.</p>
