Need Essay Templates that can get a 12 as well as examples

<p>Hey .....................
I've got a trouble in the essay part of the SAT
So can anyone help by giving me a template to use that he guarantees to get a double digit score ? </p>

<p>As well as body paragraph examples that have space in which i could fill !! </p>

<p>Help :/
Need it ASAP before the December Test !!</p>

<p>urgent !! please i wanna get a double digit score in the essay in December</p>

<p>What you ask for is an easy way to cheat, and that’s not going to happen. Do some searches for general guidelines/suggestions for the SAT essay structure and then figure out the rest by yourself.</p>

I think that comment was excessively harsh. He/she is not trying to cheat, just looking for a template to maximize chances of success on the essay. While it may not be in the spirit of the way the test was designed, it is no way cheating to have a template for the SAT essay, whether original or borrowed from another person.</p>

All that’s important is that you have a clear thesis statement that addresses the prompt, smooth transitions (However, Although, Just as), and 2-3 relatively detailed, pertinent examples. Also make sure to have a summative conclusion that does not use your original thesis verbatim. The above format, combined with varied sentence structure and a sprinkling of vocabulary that is high level and used correctly, should be enough to get you an 11, or 12.</p>

<p>Essentially:
Intro:
Optional: Interesting hook or something that garners attention

  1. Thesis
  2. Very general description of evidence
    Body:
  3. Transition Statement
  4. Some example you’re familiar with
  5. Tie back to thesis
  6. Repeat for as many body paragraphs as you want
    Conclusion:
  7. Summarize examples and thesis in 1-2 sentences.
  8. Speak about (if you want) the significance of the thesis without adding too much new information.</p>

<p>However, this template won’t guarantee anything but a semblance of organization in the essay. A good writer can, and often will, score highly on the SAT Essay, without any template. What is important is that you adopt a viewpoint about the prompt, articulate your points in a convincing way that supports your thesis and offer insightful, relevant facts.</p>

<p>@chewydog well i admire ur response , however i don’t consider this cheating . you can go through CC threads abt Essays Support most of 'em say that they’ve got a template that they fill in since a 25 minute essay is too hard to brainstorm in except for examples !!! </p>

<p>and also if you read " an advice from a 2400er you’re gonna find out that he used to write essays using templates and that he got 12s on them !! so don’t come and condemn me on my thread and leave the other threads talking on the same idea !! </p>

<p>and i asked for a template not a way to cheat i asked for help … and if you’ve got nothin to help with then it’s not you’re right place , you can go find a thread abt conscience to write ur reply in :slight_smile: </p>

<p>sorry if im somehow offensive but i need to get high marks in the SATs </p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>

<p>@SignatureCC
thanks for these information … i know that a template would not guarantee a 12 on the SAT essay part but at least i can fill 2 page :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Got My Point ?</p>

<p>Throughout history, individuals have questioned whether _<em>_. Those who contend that </em> may cite such examples as <strong><em>, arguing that that </em></strong><strong><em>. However, examples from such diverse fields as _</em></strong> and ____ prove that this notion os not necessarily valid. ____ and ____ illustrate that ______.</p>

<p>Intro template, boom</p>

<p>“Throughout history” strikes me as odd, especially if the question were to ask about something contemporary like iPhones, Lady Gaga, and the like.</p>

<p>But it generally seems like a solid first paragraph.</p>

<p>Novel template:
As shown in (title) by (author), qqqzqzqzzzzzqqzwwwqqqqqqqqqqzw3sq2qsqw1sqwqQWZQWqw</p>

<p>A template suggests a possible organizational structure that you might use. But the score of the essay is based on much more than that. By far, content is the distinguishing factor between an 8 essay and a 12, and a template does nothing to help you with that.</p>

<p>Look at SignatureCC’s post. It comes closest to describing what goes into a 12 essay, but it still doesn’t get you any closer to where you want to go. I will show you why.</p>

<p>Signature says: "All that’s important is that you have a clear thesis statement that addresses the prompt, smooth transitions (However, Although, Just as), and 2-3 relatively detailed, pertinent examples. "</p>

<p>It sounds simple, but it is the same as my saying, “To score 800 in Math all you have to do is correctly analyze the problems, select and apply the most efficient approaches to their solution, and record your answers.” It’s true, but it’s virtually useless because it skips over the most important elements of what must be done. You must have enough background knowledge about math concepts and enough practice in analyzing and solving many different kinds of math problems in order to put my advice into practice. The advice itself tells you nothing. It names goals, ("…2-3 relatively detailed, pertinent examples") but it skips over the background knowledge and experience you must have in order to achieve those goals. What details? Which examples are pertinent? What ideas make an example pertinent to this particular prompt?</p>

<p>The answers to those questions come from you. They come from your knowledge, your experience, your thoughts about your knowledge and experience, and the meanings and associations you have drawn between them and the world at large. You must know things about life and people and events and history and philosophy in order to know what is an interesting hook and what makes your example pertinent.</p>

<p>Like the advice about templates, I often see advice about which examples are the best to use. Some people have their favorites prepared and waiting. Sometimes that will work, because the example actually illustrates several DIFFERENT and SIGNIFICANT ideas about the prompt. The same example will fall flat if it is simply illustrates another instance of the same, single, repetitious idea about the prompt, or if it is really irrelevant but twisted and jammed into a prompt where it doesn’t belong.</p>

<p>Here’s the truth. There are no shortcuts. Anybody can give you good advice, but it won’t do you a bit of good unless you have done the work and preparation that is required to accomplish the goals that the advice suggests. You must learn and practice the math. You must know and think about the wider world outside of your own. There is no way around that, and anyone who tells you otherwise is doing you no favors.</p>

<p>Look at the last paragraph of Signature’s post. That is what you really need to know.</p>
