<p>I know that the majority of people think that the writing section is the easier one, but..
I seem to be so bad at writing. Grammar and all those rules.</p>
<p>but then the last SAT i sat, I did well on my essay (12) but my overall score was 700.
its seems so impossible.</p>
<p>can someone help me?
is there a book or a guide out there to lead me?</p>
<p>cheers</p>
<p>lalalala</p>
<p>how r u bad at grammar and the rules and still score a 700? do u just read the questions and listen to your ear? please tell me lol and essays…whats ur strategy?</p>
<p>my essay strategy wasn’t so great. I just wrote a really long essay (two pages long) with three examples. one of my examples was actually a lie, but they didn’t seem to notice, which underscores the fact that they don’t meticulously examine your essay:D</p>
<p>my grammar is bad.
is there anyone else who can help me, considering that I did well on my essay but still got a 700 means that I suck.</p>
<p>thanks to anyone who replies</p>
<p>I got an 800 on writing with a 10 essay (epic curve win).</p>
<p>Therefore, I got every question on the writing section right.</p>
<p>What really helped me was just going over the rules of grammar and treating it like a problem that way, not reading it and picking the right-sounding answer because a lot of the answers (usually at least two) <em>sound</em> right.</p>
<p>go read grammar rules on sparknotes and barrons</p>
<p>lalalalalalalala</p>
<p>thanks jontheman</p>
<p>I guess it really is like a problem that requires you to work it out.</p>
<p>I got 80 MC and 10 essay for 800 too, but I did it also completely differently. For the spot the errors, I use my grammar rules, but for the sentence choices, I just go with feel, and see which one feels the best and is the least awkward. Works every time :X</p>
<p>thank you gensis.</p>
<p>so it works out for the sentence choices.
is it true that Most of the correct writing answers are the short ones? it seems really awkward if that happens</p>
<p>Most of them are, but some of the short ones, if read out loud, will have an OBVIOUS grammar flaw in there.</p>
