Once you select an essay question - you will find yourself on a page similar to the one below. Read all the instructions carefully and proceed with writing the essay. However, in this demo we have already included a sample of an average essay.

ESSAY TOPIC AND INSTRUCTIONS
When actually writing a practice essay, it is important to start your 25 minutes from the time you first read the question. This way, you don’t cheat by having more time to think about the essay topic.

In order to make these practice essays as realistic as possible, you would write the essay on paper. (For the full effect, we even have a blank essay similar to the one that they use on the SAT in the printable materials section.) Once the 25 minutes are up, you’d type it into the box like the one you see on the right. When inputting your essay, pay attention to your use of spelling and punctuation.

Directions: Consider carefully the following statement and the assignment below it. Plan and write an essay that explains your ideas as persuasively as possible. Keep in mind that the support you provide—both reasons and examples—will help make your view convincing to the reader.

In his poem, "To a Mouse," the Scottish poet Robert Burns (1759-1796) wrote these immortal lines: "The best laid schemes o' mice an' men / Gang aft a-gley." To paraphrase Burns's archaic dialect in modern English: No matter how carefully we plan our projects, something can still go wrong with them.

Assignment: What is your view of the idea that even our best plans are always at the mercy of unexpected, chance events? In an essay, support your position by discussing an example (or examples) from history, literature, the arts, science and technology, current events, or your own experience or observation.

I feel that generally speaking no matter how carefully we plan our projects something can still go wrong with them. When man invented machine he declared that now all miseries of humankind would be vanished from the earth and everyone would be basking under the sunshine of never-ending prosperity. Quite the opposite, despite that tall claim it was the same Industrial Revolution that emerged as a horrifying monster for human beings.  Thus man saw further miseries due to that industrial psychosis and nothing. Pertaining to the idea that even our best plans are always at the mercy of unexpected events, my view is very simple.  We can do our level best when making our plans but there is something else that makes our planning a huge success or absolute failure.  That “something else” is actually the God Almighty who transforms our best-laid plans into absolute failure thus at the end of the day, we end up with egg on our face.
