What did you write your essay on

Test Preparation SAT Preparation
21

<p>The writing in “cursive” portion of the SAT was by for the most difficult part for me. :slight_smile:
Btw, the essay about how moderation is an obstacle for success was too easy. :)</p>

22

<p>Im basically the same, i want to get a nicer sig though</p>

23

<p>I used Saddam Hussein, made up a book, and made up a personal experience as my 3. The Jan. one was easier.</p>

24

<p>i couldn’t think of what to write for this essay. i was very vague and talked about presidents of the us. I’m so screwed on this essay and CR. math and writing MC was good.</p>

25

<p>I got the leaders one and talked about Richard Nixon. My essay was awfully short though. Only about 1 and a quarter pages. Anyone else a slow writer?</p>

26

<p>I got the leaders one and wrote about Indira Gandhi and Joseph Stalin, and had about an inch of space left :)</p>

27

<p>I have a question, i mentioned a quote that kid cudi said in the conclusion, how would the collegeboard look at this. Negatively? I hope not</p>

<p>^if I was grading your essay, you would get a 14(out of 12) :slight_smile:
but I don’t think it would hurt, probably help actually</p>

<p>@boston1993
I’m sure those essay graders wouldn’t mind :D</p>

31

<p>Got the leaders essay, wrote about Napoleon and Snowball from Animal Farm, FDR, and McCarthy (lol).</p>

<p>I wrote my intro paragraph then erased it and changed my opinion… still managed to fill up the two pages though in 20 min.</p>

32

<p>Alright that helped relieve me. Do you think the graders would even know who he is</p>

33

<p>MLK Jr., Darius (Persian king), and Themistocles</p>

34

<p>I used Saddam Hussein and Suharto as examples and I alluded to but did not mention Hitler. I wrote one paragraph about moral relativism and one that related the works of Noam Chomsky to the topic. However, I wrote my essay more about how leaders of different countries are treated differently than about how leaders are treated differently from average people. Hopefully that doesn’t count as “off-topic.”</p>

35

<p>Used Governor of South Carolina and a made up personal experience. I usually get 10-12 essays, I probably got a 7 on this one, it killed.</p>

36

<p>I wrote about Hitler (now that I think of it, waayy too obvious of an example :p), Andrew Johnson, and the CEO’s of Enron. Haha that sounds like a really weird and unrelated list but I think it worked. I filled up both pages (idk, some people say it gives you a slight boost if you fill up both) :D</p>

<p>I was a little rushed for time though so my conclusion was crap :/</p>

37

<p>I got the leaders essay.</p>

<p>I used Robert Mugabe, Adolf Hitler, and then Thomas Jefferson as a counter example. I’m hoping I got a 10+</p>

38

<p>@joeybay - epic win for fitting cudi into your essay. Mine was a load of bs I hit a wall and couldn’t think. I only covered 1.25 pages :(</p>

39

<p>I used FDR and Truman. The prompt was ridiculously easy, felt like I was writing an APUSH paper.</p>

40

<p>I used Nixon, Hussein (kind of surprised to see that one used by someone else), and 1984.</p>
