Ok, Did some of us have different Essay Topics?

I dont remember mines being about public opinon, or any of that nature. The topic that I receive (and everyone else I assume from teh west coast did) is the one about whether creativy is the most needed right now.

Just wondering

I have heard various reports about the creativity one. I think East Coast got majority rule and West Coast got creativity (of course, ETS resides in the West, sigh...)

Yeah, everyone I know (myself included) in Los Angeles got the creativity essay.

It was actually kind of tricky, since literature and history weren't as applicable (maybe history not at all) as you would expect them to be on an SAT essay.

Seems ETS has gotten smarter. In past SATs, kids used to use the 3 hour gap between the east and west coast to cheat.
Now, no more.
