Writing: 700

<p>Strategies + Tips Required.</p>

<p>I received 520 (7) and my goal is to touch 700. Can someone share tips and strategies with me to bump my score?</p>

<p>Thanks, CCers. </p>

<p>BUMP</p>

<p>Also, what is the error in this sentence? </p>

<p>We shine brighter than the sun. </p>

<p>I, personally, think there is a comparison error because we (object) shine brighter vs The sun (object)…</p>

<p>Shouldn’t it be - We shine brighter than that of the sun? </p>

<p>no its not an comparison error if it is a comparison error it will be like Our shine is brighter than that of the sun</p>

<p>Seriously, where did ‘our’ come from? </p>

<p>i think it should be: “We shine more brightly than the sun.”
this is since “to shine” is a verb and therefore requires an adverb. </p>

<p>Arg, this is awful. So much confusion. @IBNick: I know where you are heading ‘more’ because we are comparing two things, not more than that or else it will be ‘most.’ </p>
