<p>Should originality always be more highly praised than conformity?</p>
<p>In my view, this kind of prompts have a strong intention to compel us to write in one perspective since there is words like "always"\"only" or other words too absolute.</p>
<p>If I answer yes to these questions, there will certainly be many examples to list, which make it easier for my to complete an essay. But, I will seem to be very absolute, very bigoted, which is not the quality of a critical thinker SAT testers want.</p>
<p>If I answer no, there are too few examples to praise conformity. If there are, I will not be able to think of three good ones in 25 minutes.</p>
<p>So, I WONDER if I say:
Originality should not always be more highly praised than conformity, but usually to be original is more preferable.
Then I use examples to demonstrate the advantages of originality.<br>
is OK
Is this essay digressive as it simply proves the advantage of originality but fails to convey the thesis which emphasizes "not always"?</p>
<p>If all ideas above are not applicable, would you please provide some more creative ways to answer these questions?</p>
