<p>Would it be a bad idea to use the same examples on the essay I used last time if they apply to the prompt? I got an 11 last time, and I know the examples well. I just don't know if colleges care about that, or if they'll even read both.</p>
<p>Your goal of this essay is to get the highest score as possible. If that means using the same examples, use the same examples.</p>
<p>Do you mind if I ask which examples you used?</p>
<p>I suppose you’re right. </p>
<p>I used Anthem by Ayn Rand and Aung San Suu Kyi. I really like Anthem as an example. I can usually manipulate it to fit most prompts.</p>
<p>Definitely use the same examples if you can. That is the whole point because like you said you are familiar with the examples and that will let you write a much better essay. The best essay prep that I used, helped me get familiar with some examples that I could use in many different types of essays and it did an amazing job of breaking down the exact types of essay questions and how to slightly change each example and steer the essay in the right way while recycling examples.</p>
