a good essay only needs as many paragraphs as you need to explain your point. if you aren't limited to five paragraphs that doesn't restrict you from using only five paragraphs. If you make your point well and use your space correctly then you will get a good grade. Don't try to include another paragraph and just rephrase what you've already said, this will hurt you and become redundant. Hope this helps and good luck.

yeah better make it 3+ pages
