<p>Well we’ve subscribed to the Washington Post, so it comes to my house everyday. Usually in A13 or something, there’s political articles about foreign countries, most of which revolve around issues in the Middle East, so comparison is pretty viable.</p>
<p>However, your online idea’s pretty awesome, never really thought of that. The New York Journal has some pretty intense articles as well, but I just find the Washington Post to be more interesting. </p>
<p>For the Post online, create an account and you can basically search the name of a country, sports team, or anything that you’re interested it, get two articles, and compare. It’s pretty interesting and a good way to use your time.</p>
<p>But remember! Always do passage practice to keep you “SAT game” up!</p>
<p>For W, the reading helps. Once you read more and more, awkward phrasing is just way more apparent. I think that it’s pretty first instinct to know what’s right and what’s wrong, but usually it’s an accuracy problem for most CC’ers. Remember to look over all W sections once or twice if time allots. </p>
<p>Get Barron’s Writting, those questions are very difficult. My writing score on practice tests went up 20 points, which isn’t that much, but when you get up there in the 750+ range, it makes a huge difference.</p>
<p>For essays, I tend to make up facts and personal experiences, because it’s just easier to write about something that fits perfectly in the scenario that think about what examples to use, which wastes valuable time. I’ve never done essay practice. I got an 11 on my first essay though. Making up stuff really helps, and as long as you’re not TOO off the grid, SAT readers won’t penalize you for your factual errors, and in most cases they aren’t even aware of them.</p>
<p>Hope that helps:)</p>
