<p>Does anyone know how the readers really grade the essays? The “rubric” from collegeboard is extremely vague. Do they grade on having a certain number of examples, or one example from history and one from real life, etc?</p>
<p>Also, does anyone have the link to that SAT Essay Guide Board? I saw it a few weeks ago and now can’t find it :(</p>
<p>Any essay help appreciated :)</p>

<p>As for evaluation criteria: there is no clear set of them. There are numerous ways to earn a high score: some people use three examples of varying types; some use two of the same type; and some use only one (even an anecdotal one).</p>
<p>Nonetheless, if you coherently write an essay with three relevant and well-developed examples, not all of which are of the same type, you’re almost ensured a 10 or higher.</p>
