    hi

    If I use i.e. or e.g., will I lose any mark?

    Because they seem to be not 'professional'

    Why not try to avoid using them?

    Instead of "eg", say "for example"

    If you need to use "ie", is your preceeding sentence sufficiently clear? Perhaps try rewording it so that you don't need this qualification.
