<p>I'm taking the June ACT, and it'll be my first (and hopefully last) time taking the ACT with writing, so I want to get a decent writing score. How should I prepare for it? I was also wondering what a good writing score is.. I heard it was 8 and above. Do colleges really look at writing scores? How important are they? thanks :)</p>
<p>Depends on the school honestly. I know weird schools like uchicago dont even want to see it so look at their websites to see if they like to see the score I got a 9 so i’ll just tell you how to write it and look at some samples they really help.<br>
Take 5 mins and trust me you will need it (dont rush on and write without analyzing your prompt)
Intro I just introduced the topic and led onto my thesis statement. Warning they don’t really care about your writing style much they just care if you can make a plausible and well structured argument in 30 minutes. Transition to your body paragraphs I suggest you have two body paragraphs as support for the thesis and the third body paragraph as a counter argument. You can briefly and just briefly say your opinion about the topic. Acknowledge anyone’s counter arguement to make yourself sound more involved in the topic and creates a sense of ethos (creditability) about what you are talking about. This definately will stregthen your argument. </p>
<p>Make a brief 2 to three sentence conclusion that restates the thesis in a different wording and say the lasting effect the topic will have in the way you arued about. These are my tips hope they helped</p>
