Usually, when I practice writing essays for the SAT, I usually find myself using the same examples over and over again (usually Siddhartha by Herman Hesse and Faust by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe) because the essay topics are pretty similar most of the time.
Are there any other books (or any inspirational stories or events or anything of that nature) that can be used as good examples in the SAT essay section? Thanks!

The SAT essay prompt is always a prompt that's very open to interpretation. It's never based on a book, a particular class, or a particular topic. They're all about life in general. The essay readers aren't really looking at how many novels you can quote or how any maxims you can jot down on your paper in the half an hour or so that you have during the test. They're seeing if you have relevant and solid points relating to the prompt, as well as your grammar and writing conventions. A high score indicates that you use varied diction and can write in a way that makes sense.

Once I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new feedback are added- checkbox and now every time a remark is added I get four emails with the identical comment. Is there any approach you may remove me from that service? Thanks!
