Good afternoon :)
An exemplification essay is simply an essay that gives an example about something you say. It usually involves providing many examples to support some kind of generalization you make, and the examples serve as your support, giving your statement credibility. An example of a generalization could be that not everyone needs a high school education to be financially successful in life, and give the example of Christine Comaford. She never completed high school
or college, but became an entrepreneur, CEO, and multimillionaire. She has worked as an operational high-tech officer at Microsoft, Lotus, Adobe, and Apple and has worked as a strategy advisor to Oracle and Symantec Corp.
For each facet of your generalization you could provide an example. If you decide to do something like successful people without formal education, you could include college as well, and include other examples in this list. The stronger your examples the better your paper will be.
I wish you the best of luck!
