SAT Essay Prep

<p>Does anyone have any tips on how to formulate a 10-12 point essay with time issues? I am used to having an hour or so to write a good essay.</p>

<p>I started writing almost when I got the prompt and I didn't even have time for a conclusion. I used examples from real life and ample detail, but I ended up getting an 8. Can anyone give me some tips on how to manage time more efficiently and increase my score?</p>

<p>Practice is key. Do sample essay prompts under timed conditions, and plan out how long you will spend on each part of the essay (like 1-2 min pre-writing, etc.).</p>
