January SAT essay Question

<p>Okay so the essay prompt as u all know, was about opinions.
Now, I had a nasty cold when I took it, and I freaked out when I couldn’t think of any examples (Now i can think of like 10)</p>

<p>so i chose MLK and oprah</p>

<p>i talked about how when they first started, they didn’t have a very good upbringing but they still spoke from their heart so they could get there message across.
so basically i said their opinions didn’t come from mostly knowledge but from their heart and mind and people still listened.</p>

<p>mehhh, did i screw up? or does that answer the prompt?</p>

<p>holy crap was that really the prompt!?</p>

<p>does everyone in everywhere to took the SAT yesterday got the same essay prompt???</p>

<p>No, the prompt was</p>

<p>should opinions be taken serious from everyone? or should we listen to the opinions that are backed up by knowledge and spoken from intellectual individuals and so on.</p>

<p>i’m just wondering if i went way off from what they were asking.</p>

<p>No one else had this prompt?</p>

<p>My prompt was about external pressures and whether they make you more productive. Or atleast something along those lines. I talked about Andrew Carnegie and about school.</p>

<p>what the hell?</p>

<p>are u an international?</p>

<p>lol ima laugh if i’m the only one who got this prompt</p>

<p>Mine was about pressure, also.</p>

<p>I wrote about Harry Potter, and Pride and Prejudice.</p>

<p>

I got the same prompt. i gave examples of industrial revolution, HP and something i made up. lol
I’m not an international btw.</p>

<p>same, prompt about productivity, i talked about the joint effort in haiti, school, and soldiers in iraq</p>

<p>stuntburn, you are not alone; I got that prompt :slight_smile: I liked it a lot, but I probably came off as arrogant since I said that only well-informed opinions should be taken seriously. But oh well :)</p>
