<p>Would anybody here consider Rosa Parks practical and pragmatic if she were described in the following manner?</p>
<p>Taking the issue of segregation into her own hands and hosting a bus boycott
Aiming for the problems that she can actually fix</p>
<p>Or is that more idealistic?</p>
<p>I just used a really basic example:
two teachers, one demanding immediate perfection (idealistic), other asking for progress from students (realistic).</p>
<p>it was very well written. do you think it could get a 10-12?</p>
<p>used brave new world and martin luther king … bs’d about brave new world because i was flustered from forgetting my admissions ticket (praise jesus for blackberry internet)</p>
<p>Einstein,Newton,United States for learning from others essay.</p>
<p>Anyone have experience with essays that start well but then end abruptly due to time constraints? If I wrote a relatively strong intro and first example paragraph but then hastily cut short my second example (only had 2-3 sentences) to jump to the conclusion, what grade would I be looking at? Final length was about 1.75 pages.</p>
<p>what happens if the conclusion is about two sentences because there was no space left?</p>
<p>you are screwed, cancel cancel now, for you have failed, they will surely give you a 4 wothout even reading.</p>
<p>I had the same problem. I thought my essay was very strong, but the conclusion just got cut short because my handwriting gets completely illegible if I try to make it too small…</p>
<p>Oh well, first time, we’ll see how it went.</p>
<p>I wrote about the Taiping Rebellion and Bismarck.</p>
<p>quote from Einstein, tom edison, and personal experience…used an analogy in my conclusion… good?</p>
<p>Reformation: Horace Mann & Utopia Society</p>
<p>Plus a personal example</p>
<p>Macbeth and Harry Potter.</p>
<p>I got my SAT essay scored at sattutor.com. There is actually a section that let’s you see what score your essay would get on the SAT at [SAT</a> Essay Writing](<a href=“http://www.sattutor.com/sat_essay_writing.html]SAT”>http://www.sattutor.com/sat_essay_writing.html) - Hopefully that helps a few people.</p>
<p>^^^
sure ya did mr. viral marketer</p>
<p>Kinda scared by these mentions of comparing idealism/practicality… thought we were supposed to be answering something different? (Won’t go into detail, but wasn’t it like saying which was better?)</p>
<p>Anyways, I used Thomas Edison, Einstein, and The Golden Compass. Hoping that book counts as sophisticated enough literature… seeing as it’s contemporary. The Golden Compass examples were lame, though: basically I used the villains as role models or something idiotic.</p>
<p>SAT essays are persuasive. Positive that you don’t have to compare sides. No need to worry.</p>
<p>^ Yeah, that’s what I thought. :)</p>
<p>bioshock 2/ayn rand, and stephen covey</p>
<p>wow. i am freaking out now. i thought my essay was okay, but i guess i took a little too much time planning it. i mean my grammar is a top skill of mine, but everyone says they are citing things such as MLK, Robespierre, Aristotle, etc. and my references weren’t that complicated/super awesome! damn! frick, i didn’t even get 2 pages in. i only got 1.5… do you think there is any way of me getting a 10 if i cited… Zuckerberg/Grapes of Wrath? i feel super inadequate now that everyone is telling these super sophisticated references. ahhh!!!</p>
<p>oh yeah. and i only had time for a 2 sub-paragraph essay. frick on a stick with a brick.</p>
