tricks that have helped me with Writing SAT

<p>I just feel like sharing some tips that are helpful to me on the Writing SAT:</p>

<p>shorter is better
look for less commas
ing is wrong
"Because" at the beginning of the sentence is almost alawys right
the correct answer should have at least one other choice that has very similar phrasing
watch out for number agreement (plural/singular)
idiomatic expressions
before choosing "no error" , double check (there should be no more than 4 no errors on a single test)
make sure the answer you choose really does make the sentence better. If unsure, just leave it as is. </p>

<p>Essay:
don't be afraid to make up examples
think about things you learn in history class (this has helped me with my essays)
incorporate a quote</p>

<p>I agree - these are very helpful. But you don’t have to limit your search space to history class - I’ve found English class to be very useful, too!</p>

<p>@ABCGIRL‌ What was your score? If you don’t mind…or score range? I did do all those techniques and got a low 510 this last December. First time I got 550, and I can’t raised it up for unknown reasons. </p>
