To improve your writing skills first focus on writing one good body paragraph at a time for a given prompt. Focus on writing something clear and that proves your thesis. Once you get good at this start increasing your speed. In my book The SAT Essay Formula I go into depth as to how to use this strategy and others so you can write a quality essay very quickly.

Emily, yes definitely create some good examples you can use before test day. In my book I give a step-by-step process for thinking through the prompt that can help you avoid overthinking. But here's the gist: read the prompt, notice the yes/no question they are asking you, brainstorm several examples, decide if you have more evidence for a yes or a no response, choose your thesis, start writing.

Historical examples are always good. However, it's the logic you use to prove your thesis that will get you the highest scores.
