The SAT Essay Prompt Dissection Technique

The prompt dissection technique is a way to break down the SAT Essay prompt into basic elements. This makes it extremely easy to write an organized, on-topic essay that will impress graders every time.

Follow these steps:

1. Skip the quote and read the SAT Essay question first which is just underneath the quote (you can read the quote next or just skip it all together).

2. Circle the most important words in the prompt.

3. Discover what the yes/no question you are being asked to respond to is.

4. Generate examples that would work for BOTH sides of the thesis.

Tip number four may sound like the opposite of what you should do but it actually makes the SAT Essay much easier to write than trying to only generate examples for one side of the argument.

5. Choose the thesis that’s easiest to support INSTEAD of a thesis that you agree with. This way you will always be able to write a complete well-supported essay.

Warning: Students that neglect tip five above accidentally end up writing an essay on a thesis that’s impossible for them to prove. This has caused some students to get very low scores. So take this advice seriously if you want to get a perfect score on the SAT Essay.

You may still lose some valuable points on the SAT Essay, if you don’t learn a few more tips.
