<p>I got a 710 on my writing section, and the only thing holding me back are the Improving Paragraphs. All 6 of my errors were from them.</p>
<p>Silverturtle's guide didn't really go into it...but is it just practice practice practice?</p>
<p>PS. do essay readers read your essay online? Because I saw my photocopy and it looked horrendous in cursive (But I got a 11)</p>
<p>Majortests.com has great practice resources:</p>
<p>[SAT</a> Grammar : Practice tests and explanations](<a href=“http://www.majortests.com/sat/grammar.php]SAT”>SAT Grammar : Practice tests and explanations | Major Tests)</p>
<p>Yes, I do believe the key is practice. Reading about errors is nice, but practicing helps a lot once you get bored of reading review books and guides and the such.</p>
<p>I hate that website. I can never get above 7/15, yet on the SAT I get like 47/49</p>
<p>Thanks Ice Cube I"ll look into it.</p>
<p>GreedisGood, I’ve seen your incredible jump from 2100s to 2400.</p>
<p>Do you have any advice for improving paragraphs/sentences? Gramamtix says short is better…but that’s not foolproof</p>
<p>I view the improving paragraphs as like Critical Reading lite. The right answer will alway be in the paragraph. For example:</p>
<p>Which of the following, if added to paragraph 1, would improve the passage?</p>
<p>ANSWER: Whatever is being added should already, sort of, be there. </p>
<p>Improving paragraphs are hard to explain, and sometimes can seem really subjective, but once you realize everything is stemming from the passage itself, and already needs to be mentioned, it becomes a lot easier. </p>
<p>Improving sentences, in my opinion, are the easiest of all writing MC. If you know your rules you should be fine.</p>
<p>OK Thanks GIG,</p>
<p>I didn’t know the answer was supported by the text, I thought it was only in CR.</p>
<p>No, that rule applies to writing too. If it didn’t, the college board might get sued.</p>
