<p>Can anyone give me some ideas on what I should do to improve my writing skills in 20 days? I can do decently in the multiple choice section but not so well on the essay! I don't think I'll be ever to finish that essay in 20 min. In fact, I only managed to finish two paragraphs in October SAT II. It just takes me so long to organize my thoughts and come up with good sentences. What should I do? Thanks!</p>
<p>I say pratice a lot and look over a essay writing guide, like the one at sparknotes (it's free): <a href="http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/writing/chapter4section1.rhtml%5B/url%5D">http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/sat2/writing/chapter4section1.rhtml</a></p>
<p>That's my problem as well; i finish it when i practice, but not for the real thing; i should have allotted a time amount for each paragraph; watch time more carefully</p>
