<p>Did anyone else have a improving paragraphs one about time travel?</p>
<p>No, must’ve been experimental.</p>
<p>So far I only have 1 wrong! Usually I get 4-5, but with a good essay, who knows, maybe I can 750+!</p>
<p>I believe I had one about time travel. I think it experimental because I didn’t have experimental reading or math.</p>
<p>Isn’t it preferable to incorporate two or three examples?</p>
<p>@Boston1993 </p>
<p>I scored a 12 in Jan with 1 example and have seen numerous 12 essays with a single example.</p>
<p>Yes, it is.</p>
<p>Time travel was experimental.</p>
<p>Yea, I think two is minimal if you want a 12. I used four paragraph. Intro – Body1 – Body2 – Conclusion. Body 1 was strictly about Hitler. Body 2 included slavery leaders, Bush, and Obama. In the conclusion, I basically refuted the opponent’s arguments – appeal to majority, tyranny of the majority, etc.</p>
<p>About the Identifying sentence errors,</p>
<p>Wasn’t there another redundancy error besides “return back”? Can’t remember the Q, but I think it was there.</p>

Oh. All I’m saying is that there is a high correlation between using only one example and getting a lower score. You and others are more of the exception, rather than the rule.</p>
<p>^ lol, did hitler as well</p>
<p>I used Hitler as well, but I did it from the perspective of a German citizen and said that he ameliorated the lives of his people by taking them out of poverty.</p>
<p>Risky, but I think I pulled it off.</p>
<p>boston1993, </p>
<p>Not necessarily. Remember quality before quantity! If 1 example gave you sufficient basis for you to write a superb essay with plenty of commentary, expect a 12!</p>
<p>Am I the only one of the few who got the topic of “is moderation an obstacle for success?”
If any of you got this topic as well, I wrote about the Compromise of 1850 (Henry Clay) and Steve Jobs. Filled both sides (well, almost! Had a few lines to spare) so hopefully it’ll be sufficient for 11-12?</p>
<p>I have a question: should the essay be written based solely on the sentence (should the leaders of a country or group be judged in different standards) or also based on the sentences in the box.(like unlawful whatever)…</p>
<p>Guangzhun, </p>
<p>it should be solely on the prompt. But the quoted box is pretty much 95% related to the prompt (most quotes take a side) so if you argued the quote, then chances are, you’re still on the right track :)</p>
<p>I think that both pieces of information corresponded with one another.</p>
<p>Thx everyone.</p>
<p>what i did was to write the essay based soly on the prompt… Is that ok?</p>
<p>Definitely. That’s what you’re supposed to do.</p>
