Is one example enough for the SAT essay?

Thank you guys! So I guess what matters over number of examples is how well you express and organize your ideas, and how comfortable you are. Of course, length still matters. I usually used one example during my weekly exam and was scored 10-12 by the prep center’s graders (who grade much harder), but since I heard that it was not a good idea to use just one example, I tried to use two at the November SAT, could not articulate myself as well, and ended up with a 9. I’ll try going with what I’m comfortable with next week, and hopefully score in the double-digits. Thank you again for the help, everyone!
