<p>Hey guys</p>
<p>sometimes, I find some political problems in some coutries can be used as my examples in my essay, but will I get into trouble by criticizing the political scandals or problems in some coutries( other than US) ....</p>
<p>thanks :)</p>
<p>hello
i don't think that there is a problem with critizising other countries, but don't be so harsh.... The objective of the essay is not the content, it is how well structurally is it written.... But i would think it before critizising the US, since u r searching for education in there..... u can maybe mention it as "capilalistic countries showing imperialistic behaviors towards other economically weak countries...." </p>
<p>hope this helps</p>

<p>o, thanks so much tashin</p>
<p>anyone else</p>
<p>Yes. I almost always use political issues in my essays (practice & when I took the real SAT). The real SAT I got an 8, I'm now getting about 10 every time on my practice tests. I believe if you write well, give examples dealing with the topic, and are detailed, they don't care about what you write, so long as it isn't a hypothetical situation.</p>

<p>well that is the computer grading them... so they cant really have a bias towards politics :)</p>
<p>I'd say okay but refrain from insensitively criticizing the Democrats/Republicans because the chances are just too high that you might be criticizing someone that the essay grader supports. They are more likely to have a bias about Rep/Dem as opposed to, say if you commented negatively about the Prime Minister of Japan, for example.</p>
<p>But keep in mind that you are not trying to criticize anyone in your essay. Just use the facts objectively to convey how you feel -- I wrote about senatorial scandals (senators convicted of child molestation...etc.) in my last essay and still received a 10.</p>
<p>ok, thank you so much, guys</p>
<p>I don't think there is anything wrong with using politics.</p>
