<p>hey guys...i'm taking the ACT Saturday as most of you probably are...anyway I was wondering if anyone had past experience with the essay. I heard that you need to mention both sides of the issue. If anyone has had an essay graded by the exam, could they post it here or pm me? Even just guidelines on how it should be written- I only ask because the sample 12 essay in the official act book was really childish and did not look like it would merit that score on the actual exam. I just want to see how to best structure it since I've only had past experience with the SAT and am self-studying for this test. Thank you!</p>
