    Maybe get the shape of your essay in your head, like will you be writing it trait by trait (i.e a paragraph on ambition, on one evil etc.)

    Everyone has a different style, but if I were writing it I'd chart his development as a character throughout the play and highlight the contrast between Macbeth at the beginning of the play and Macbeth at the end of the play. I would talk about how he begins as a noble warrior, with suitable quotes, then chart his progression as ambition takes over, consumes him, and slowly gives way to regret. I'd talk about his latent evil too and possibly his relationship with lady Macbeth.

    Is there a need to dig up obsolete and highly irrelevant threads?

    I mean, that person obviously wanted the Macbeth essay for today, TODAY!

    You bringing up a two month old thread just to say that you don't know is, to be honest, pretty amazing.
