personally, i like using literary examples.
basically, you just need to have two or three in your arsenal that you understand fairly well and can analyze its plot and themes. the prompts are pretty much universal, so as long as you know how to connect the plots of the examples to the prompt, you’re set for a high score.

for the june sats, i used bradbury’s fahrenheit 451 and huxley’s brave new world. both pretty much consist of the same concept about the ominous future of the modern world and blah blah blah. i dont really remember what the prompt was, but i just pretty much bs’ed it and both examples entailed almost the same analysis and explanations.

fyi, i got an 11 and 800 in W.
