    I went from a 3.5 (according to Princeton Review) to a 5 on the actual GRE after implementing these exact steps. Thanks, Mason and Magoosh!

    Hi Mason, awesome video! Thank you. I'm curious, what would be better if you had an extra 2-3 minutes at the end of the section: Using extra time that you have to write a conclusion? Or checking over what you have written for any grammatical/spelling mistakes? What is more important to your score?

    • @MagooshGRE
      @MagooshGRE  Рік тому +2

      Ideally, you finish writing your essay with a few minutes left for a grammar/spelling check! But it's also important to ensure that your essay feels complete and well-supported. So it really depends on where you're at with the essay!

    Should the concession paragraph be one of the body paragraphs, i.e 2 body paragraphs for supporting the thesis statement, and 1 body paragraph for concession?
    Or should it be a separate one, thus becoming 1+3+1+1=6 total paragraphs instead of 5?

      Concession paragraph and conclusion can be combined.

    Can we use concession to one of the body paragraph ?

    • @MagooshGRE
      @MagooshGRE  2 роки тому +1

      Yes, it is possible to include your concession point in a body paragraph. However, you will be tempted to make the concession too short. That's why we recommend a full paragraph for your concession point :)
