Is it okay to make a fake study or experiment to add evidence and credibility to your writing?
Lol I did this too today. Haha I hope so, I did with my first ACT and got a 10/12. I don’t see why not, the essay tests if you can write an essay, not what random/arbitrary facts you know about [insert weird prompts here].
Although, one may note that using statistics/facts is important for constructing a good argument, resulting in a good essay. Using made up facts shows you know how to write an essay, and you realize how important it is to back up your argument with “cold hard” facts, even if they aren’t as cold or hard in reality.
