What ho, ye seekers after wisdom!
Last time we covered all the big changes you can expect when you write the new SAT’s essay, and we promised that we’d get into the details very soon. As we’re humans of our word, here’s the skinny on how to make the most of the expanded timeframe and new rules.
As of now we’ve got you apprised of all the changes the SAT’s essay portion has undergone and we’ve explained how to turn those changes to your advantage and write a really killer essay, so we’ve just about covered all the big stuff. However, there are still a few stray details left here and there that it would do you good to get in on.

As of March of this year, the new SAT’s essay portion has undergone a pretty thorough overhaul, but fear not, college-bound scholars! There’s lots of new stuff to learn and keep track of but, as always, we’ve got you covered.

Maybe you make yourself something to eat now so you won’t get hungry later. Maybe just one more episode so you can really focus. We’ve all done it, and surely, we’ve all also suffered the inevitable aftermath—procrastination sucks, because it’s not even fun: while you’re procrastinating, you’re just anxious the whole time about the work you should be doing but aren’t doing, so really, just don’t do it.

Every time you turn around, your children are requesting the newest version of a technological gadget. While one child madly texts friends in the back seat of the car, the other is scanning Facebook, admiring his 378 friends.

But then you remember the money you’ve spent on eBooks and learning games and you wonder, “Are electronic gadgets the problem or the solution?” The answer is, “Yes” and “Yes”. Therein lies the conundrum. As with most things in life, the true answer lies somewhere in the middle.
