<p>Has anyone tested out the Grammatix essay format on the real SAT? If so, what did you get?</p>
<p>I didn't use any specific essay format for the SAT and i ended up receiving a 10 on it</p>
<p>what is the Grammatix essay format?</p>
<p>yea, what is it?</p>
<p>i think Sparknotes format is pretty good.</p>
<p>Is sparknotes the five paragraph theme? Grammatix is kinda like the five paragraph thing. Do you think I should use two examples or three? Or just one really long example split into several paragraphs?</p>
<p>I use this:</p>
<p>Intro- 3 sentences; lead, thesis, outro
Second Paragraph- 4 sentences; topic, assertion, example, connection
Third Paragraph- 4 sentences; topic, assertion, example, connection
Fourth Paragraph- 4 sentences; topic, assertion, example, connection
Conclusion- 3 sentences; lead, assertion, overall connection</p>
<p>Its a shortened version of the perfect AP Lang essay. If you write with that format and have good grammar/spelling I promise that you will get a good score. Also, remember that paragraph 2 should have your decent support, paragraph three should be your weakest support, and paragraph 4 hould have your strongest support.</p>
<p>can you be more specific?</p>
<p>Poisonous could you post a sample essay using this exactly format?
Thanks</p>
<p>Intro- 3 sentences; lead, thesis, outro
Second Paragraph- 4 sentences; topic, assertion, example, connection
Third Paragraph- 4 sentences; topic, assertion, example, connection
Fourth Paragraph- 4 sentences; topic, assertion, example, connection
Conclusion- 3 sentences; lead, assertion, overall connection</p>
<p>Can someone please explain what all these words mean/?/</p>
<p>please</p>
<p>Actually this is the best format:</p>
<p>Intro - Start out broad and slowly narrow in; thesis; introduce examples you will use.</p>
<p>First Body - Transition/Topic Sentence; example; restate topic/thesis sentence.</p>
<p>Second Body - Same as First Body</p>
<p>Conclusion - Restate Thesis; Broaden it out.</p>
<p>so, quicksandslowly, you only use two examples? Have you used this format on the real SAT? What did you get?</p>
