<p>Yep. Reviving that old essay writing goal I've been meaning to write. lol.</p>

<p>p.s. Took exactly 25 minutes. Didn't revise it (not surprised). I just hope I got the format down and maybe you guys can give me some pointers? </p>

<p>oh and p.p.s. I b.sed the entire two examples. Couldn't think of something off the top of my head, so I just scribbled down some stuff. SO don't be offended in any way :P</p>

<p>Should people respect and tolerate everyone's opinions, or should people take a stand against opinions they consider to be wrong?</p>

<p>People should respect the opposite opinions from other people. Not everyone will have the same opinion with you, but arguing and taking stand can cause more trouble than good. Take the example of my volunteer friend and I. We disagree, but in the end it still works out. Several examples through film and real life experiences prove that everyone should tolerate opposing opinions from others rather than to fight and take stand.</p>

<p>Demonstrated through the actions of one of my work companion and me, respecting other’s opinions can lead to healthy work relationship. When I first started the internship job for a local university, I had a partner who was absolutely my opposite. Our opinions collided constantly and in the beginning, we argued almost hourly. Everyday I would come home fuming about spending a day arguing about every little thing. But one day I realized that rather to stand against the opinions I consider wrong, I should take a different method of dealing with her. Instead of arguing with her about how challenging and hard that procedure was, I just let her do what she wanted. After a week of implementing this non-arguing, let it be, sort of stand, our work relationship became much better. True, my opinions were not said as frequently, but my mother always told me that for someone’s relationship to become better, one must give up sometimes and let that person go. Therefore, this experience shows how important it is to tolerate other’s opinions. Fighting and ruining current co-workers won’t benefit me any way, but letting go and respecting that co-workers’ beliefs and opinions can.</p>

<p>Shown through the actions of Sheldon Cooper in the popular comedy series The Big Bang Theory, constantly fighting and stating your personal beliefs can get old and annoying. Sheldon Cooper is one of the smartest physicist in CalTech. He rarely respect the opinions of others and hides none of his feelings about the public to anyone. Sheldon would be glad to give his opinions to whatever issue his friends were talking about. This trait is usually funny to viewers, but drastically annoying to his roommate, Leonard. In one episode when Sheldon wasn’t there, Leonard’s friends all sit around talking about the usual remarks made by Sheldon. Quietly listening outside of the doorway, Sheldon heard everything and decided to befriend them and tried hard to stop inputting his personal opinions to everyone. As demonstrated by the actions of Sheldon, respecting and cooperating with others are important traits that can help become friends with other people.</p>

<p>Most people try to allow and respect other people’s opinions, but sometimes it is very hard to just let the person with the opposite of your belief go without arguing why your idea is right. As shown by the actions of Sheldon Cooper and myself, however hard or difficult, it is better to respect the person rather to argue your opinion because the result may be either losing your job or losing your friends.</p>

<p>3/6. Content is not impressive. Style is OK.</p>

<p>I would personally give it a 7-8/12, but you would most likely prove me wrong on the SAT. I presume a 9-10(possibly a 11 because of the length) with this. I agree with the above poster that the content is not impressive. If I can add more, I don’t think the style is necessarily great either. I can’t believe you wrote this much in 25 minutes. This verbiage will, unfortunately, benefit you for the sake of the SAT(good for you :)).</p>

<p>You should consider doing more research on more essay topics. This seems like an easy topic, and I’m surprised you couldn’t think of examples.</p>

<p>Thanks for the scores. I was predicting something <8, but 9,10, or possibly 11 is fine as well :p. </p>

<p>Definitely will research some more JefferyJung. But what topics should I research? Is there a thread where people post best topics to research on CC?</p>

<p>all in all, thanks!</p>

<p>Go to this link and read through some examples. You should know at least 10-20 of these examples. But really, most of your “best” examples should be from areas of your interest(if you enjoyed English class during school, you should write about that).</p>

<p>That’s amazing. Thanks again JefferyJung!</p>

7

<p>Don’t make the mistake of believing that length alone will affect your score. If the content is repetitive, superficial, juvenile, self-contradictory, disorganized, incoherent or a grammatical disaster, don’t think having lots of it will help.</p>

<p>Definitely keep all the points in mind. Basically I need to be more coherent and focuses. Something I’m definitely lacking in this essay :p.</p>

<p>Thanks guys!</p>
