IT would be after you select your topic and decided what your paper is about because the thesis tell the person what the paper will be about and what will be in it.

Thesis is your own argument. If I say taht "you are learning here at openstudy" in my essay, this would be my thesis. I can provide proofs to support my claim, such as the fact that you are reading this, and as well as that I see you online on this forum. In conclusion, I would say "Therefore, you are learning here at openstudy" to make a connection to my thesis.
