<p>...did anyone else do bad? I got a 9. Last time I didn't fill up all the lines, had a weak 3rd example & conclusion & got an 11, so maybe they're looking into the actual quality of the essay more.</p>
<p>My essay was a little longer this time - probably about 1 3/4 pages - and I got an 8. Last time it was a little less than 1 1/2 and I got a 10.</p>
<p>What I really don't understand is that this time I felt like I had stronger examples, yet I did worse; but perhaps I didn't develop my ideas enough. We'll see...</p>
<p>I filled up both pages, but my organization was sorely lacking. My introduction was strong, taking about one-third of a page. Then, I had my first body paragraph, which lasted almost a page and a half. The next "body paragraph" occupied the remaining space, and there was no conclusion. I think that my ideas were strong, but I quite clearly didn't follow the formula (I just didn't have time to think... I sat paralyzed for like 10 minutes and then started writing crazily).</p>
<p>I got a 10.</p>
<p>same length full 2 pages 11*</p>
<p>both times filled up 2 whole pages
both times got a 12</p>
<p>i filled up both and got a 10. my second example was crap. my first was pretty amazing, though. it was probably the imbalance (like one page vs. 6 lines) in example development that kept me from those last 2 points</p>
<p>filled up both pages and had a strong intro and good 3 supporting examples. however i had a 1 sentence conclusion. still got an 11.</p>
<p>I had about 2 lines left and got an :( 8. :( The ironic thing is that I have won numerous creative writing contests and am considering writing as a hobby (second career with an inordinate amount of luck) in my spare time. I HATE SAT/ACT essays!!!</p>
<p>I filled up both as well and ended up with a 9. I think it is pretty random.</p>
<p>i filled up both pages and had to write a sentence or two below the end of the page to finish my conclusion. i got an 8. i am so ****ed.</p>
<p>filled both pages minus couple lines got an 11</p>
