annalyzing SAT practice essays:

After reading other peoples practice essays, I realizes how important it is to have a main idea and back it up with solid examples. Despite given only 25 minutes to complete the essay, that doesn't neccessarily mean that you can't write a well organized piece that flows from one point to the next. I think most people kind of spoke what was on their mind and didn't really think it through with accuracy and precision. In fact, my essay mainly consisted of my thoughts and not reliable examples. Organization is another important aspect of writing. A good writer will have examples from two ends of the spectrum but can incorporate them together to make it flow well. In addition to organizations, grammar and sentence pattern is good to have. With impressive vocabulary and different types of sentences, you can keep the reader interested in what you have to say. As for me, I honestly think that there is much room for improvement in essay writing. With practice, it will become easier and hopefully when the real SAT's come around, I will be completely prepared. :]
