^i think this was a past SAT promp and that was the essay they wrote…

I would say 8 maybe 9… you only used 2 examples and, as mentioned above, the second one doesn’t really fit. Always try to use at least 3 examples and if you can’t think of any, make something up–tailor your example to fit the prompt. All the graders are really looking for is that you have the ability to support your opinion (thesis) with well thought-out examples. Don’t worry so much about trying to impress the graders with vocabulary, they’ve probably seen most of the words you’re going to throw at them anyways. What’s better is to use varying sentence structures, which shows a grasp of English grammar and technical skill.
Good luck on your future SAT!
