<p>@EndlessDonuts: Not really. As long as you cite where your sources come from, it doesn’t matter whether the evidence that you provide is true or not. The SAT graders are just trying to see if you can back up your argument with evidence that you provide. Your sources don’t have to be from classics; it can be from anything: history, magazines, you name it. Take a look at this article from the NYT; I think you would be surprised: [The</a> New York Times > Education > On Education: SAT Essay Test Rewards Length and Ignores Errors](<a href=“SAT Essay Test Rewards Length and Ignores Errors - The New York Times”>SAT Essay Test Rewards Length and Ignores Errors - The New York Times). Hope this helps, and good luck on your SAT!</p>
