<p>Lets just get a group of easy things you can do to improve your sat essay, without simply becoming a better writer.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Less spelling errors. I read about a study in which people were supposed to compare 2 essays and give them a grade. Essay 1 had perfect spelling and essay 2 had a spelling error in ever other sentence. Essay 1 score much better. Essay 1 was written by an 11th grader. Essay 2 was written by an MIT professor.</p></li>
<li><p>Write more. Apparently more writing correlates with a higher score.

<li><p>Don’t start summary with “in conclusion”. Instead, get right to the point, or at least use something a little more original.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Any other thoughts?</p>
