<p>How is it different from an SAT essay?</p>
<p>You have to show the complexity of the issue. You should also include the other side’s perspective, and somehow say how your side is “more right.”</p>
<p>Brown is completely right, you NEED to mention the opposing side’s argument, but not so much that the reader is confused as to what side you are on. I’ve always had a problem with the essay, a 9 is my highest.</p>
