Hi David,
Do I have to mention my opinion only in the conclusion or do I have to mention the opinion in both introduction and conclusion?
Thanks.

If the part 2 question asks you to give your opinion, it doesn't matter whether you give it at the beginning or the end. I usually advise giving your opinion at the end of the first paragraph, so the examiner is able to tick off that requirement early. Make it clear that you are expressing your opinion. Do this by using first person and phrases like "in my opinion," "to my way of thinking", "it seems to be that.."
