Bro, I have an average IQ and still, after reading the outline twice, I could not relate myself to the topic. I do not know what is missing, probably the examples of practical life are missing in it. This does not mean your outline is not up to the mark or I am not satisfied with your outline, it seems you have put a lot effort and probably you will very much pass the essay exam but still, you have not touched the vast subject of love, sadness, contentment, death, life continuous struggle of person with himself and the concept of God, the concept of universe in relation to man and its relationship with happiness. In the end, working of Iqbal, Shams Tabriz in reaching the stage of enlightenment, (wherein some way a person is contented with himself and God and is in a state of bliss).

You have addressed the main point only in the last portion. You have knowledge. You just need to work on relevancy. Also, outline is very long. In examination, students can handle 18-25 average paragraphs (around 14-20 pages). Each point in outline represents a new paragraph. So, practice your outlines accordingly. Only write relevant and most important thoughts in well organized manner. Address all key points in the outline but first of all always address the main key point or theme of the statement. Your outline and introduction will give clear idea to your examiner that whether or not you have understood the topic.
