Hi guys this is my first post here, and I am taking the sat tommorow. I’ve been quite careless to practice for the sat essay however, and I wish someone would correct my most recent essay and give me help. Based on what I am lacking or encouragement a to pursue some of my good points. So here it is…
Not a single soul on this planet is infallible. Everyone is prone to mistakes; furthermore everyone has a unique collection of both virtues and vises that lead to his or her success or downfall. Most people agree that one’s greatest vide is pompous ness. This fatal vise causes one not only to be blind of his own actions but also deaf to the advice and heeds of others.
It is well-known and established that when people need advice the most they tend to ignore it and be less willing to accept help. Examples of history, fiction all delve deeper to explore this topic.
Centuries ago, people were so similar to those of current days that the previous asset holds true as well.
Alexander the Great epitomises arrogance in his final battle. Alexander was one of the most important Greek kings history has ever witnessed, singlehandedly coalescing the entire greek states under his rule in less than 10 years. His achievements would naturally result in more confidence in himself. However, this confidence crossed apt boundaries during his final war. After conquering Persia, he seeker to conquer all of Asia. Unaware of it’s grand scale, he set forth with a legion of over 11000 soldiers. A couple of month into the marsh, it was obvious to all that this battle was a mistake. Close generals urged and begged Alexander to abrogate his mission. Alexander, however, was obdurate in his opinion and proceeded. In the end, he returned defeated for the first time in his life, and with only half the army he amassed. This historical incident teaches current leaders the important lesson of heading other’s opinions in important matters, for no one is perfect and capable of governing all.
In another release, the world of Harry Potter comes to life. One of the best novel series of all time, Harry potter recounts the story of the courage young boy who suddenly discovers being a wizard. After which he is forced to fight great evils and fight to regain his peace in the wizard in world. During one of his adventures, Harry lost his only alive relative, series black.

In conclusion, people must take the time to appreciate others advice as sometimes an objective opinion can save a lot of trouble as seen in the previous examples.
So this was written in 27 minutes. I know this is quite bad but I didn’t have time to write conclusion at minute 25. So I really hope someone takes the time to correct it and grade it and offer me any advice for this torturous section tomorrow. Thanks a lot for taking the time to read my essay.
