<p>I feel like I can write better with two examples(two body paragraphs) because I have more time to elaborate on my ideas to be more convincing.</p>
<p>Would using only two examples penalize my score because I'm not following the conventional 5 paragraphs essay?</p>
<p>I used 2 examples both times I took the SAT and got a 11 both times.</p>
<p>So I guess using 2 examples wouldn’t penalize me much?</p>
<p>quality over quantity my friend. if you can write about 3 examples and have a LOT of information on those 3 examples go for it. Otherwise, if you just cannot think about that last example 2 will suffice.</p>
