Personal Examples On The Essay?

<p>Is it possible to score a 12 using one of these as an example? (or even three personal examples?)</p>

<p>Also, is it not a good idea to "make up" personal examples, for those colleges that read the SAT essay as well as the admissions essays?</p>

<p>I dont think you can get a 12 using only personal examples.Maybe one ,but no more.</p>

<p>There are sample essays from CB that scored 12s with personal examples, so it is possible. I would go with literary or historical examples if you can, though.</p>

<p>Hehehe. Personally, I love personal examples. On this may’s SAT (my first one) I wrote one long personal example (kinda made up) and got a 12. So… YMMV.</p>

<p>I would suggest you to go for personal experiences if you can’t think about anything at that moment.There is just 25 minutes,so you need to act quick.</p>
