<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>i cant have u see my essay lol i dont have it with me

<p>i got an 11....terrible essay</p>
<p>my biggest trick is to bold the "big-sounding" words in my paragraph...</p>
<p>what topic did you have an what examples did you use? you can log on to collegeboard.com and download your essay</p>
<p>i got a 10 on my essay.....my examples were the missouri compromise and the 3/5 compromise and how they were bad and led to the civil war....the trick is to fill up both pages completely....every single line</p>
<p>we can't get our essays until nov 1</p>
<p>I got a 12 on my essay twice....I can probably send it to you/post it when the insight thing comes out Nov 1...</p>
<p>For examples I used rev war + into the wild</p>
<p>I got a 10. i really stretched my examples to where i wanted them to be... black boy, heart of darkness, then i wrote a mini-paragraph about my life.</p>
<p>did you all have the topic and a group acting without aleader</p>
<p>I got a 10 on my essay and I thought it was horrible after I wrote it during the test because I ran out of time.</p>
<p>I only had two examples...and I only wrote a page and a half.</p>
<p>My first example was really good because we just learned about it in history class so I was fresh on it. I wrote about the Cuban Missile Crisis. and then i could not think of a second example so i just did a personal experience about compromising to split a cookie with my sibling when i was younger and how we were both satisfied. haha</p>
<p>i must have had generous graders that day.</p>
<p>I got a 10. I used American Revolution and Jane Eyre.</p>
<p>i got a 10 and I'm happy.
My two examples include a personal experience (though i made up a book so i'd have a literary instead of personal example) and my second was about gas prices (this example wasn't as strong as the first one)</p>
<p>what topic!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>I'm in Canada, and I think the prompt I got was only for Canadian/international students. It was basically something like "Do people's actions reveal their true intentions and attitudes more than their words do?" Did anyone in the States get this prompt?</p>
<p>Mytopic was about compromises and I got a 9. Wasnt too happy. I would like to see what people wrote and how they wrote to get 10+</p>
<p>I'm really starting to believe that if you casually throw in big words and manage to fill up all of the space, you'll get a 10+. I have a good vocabulary and I rarely make spelling/grammar mistakes, but my essay was seriously the worst thing I've ever written. I managed to fill up all of the space, though, and I got an 11.</p>
<p>^ This is true...that's what I did for my essay also.</p>
<p>I got an 11 for the choices/decision essay.
My 2 examples were Grapes of Wrath and George Washington during the American Revolution. I felt like I was bsing half the time, but apparently collegeboard thought it was decent. :)</p>
<p>I got a 12 on my essay. I will post it as soon as they come out.</p>
<p>12</p>
<p>William Penn/Sam Adams.</p>
<p>I don't think that helps anyone though (:</p>
