My Whose reality sac is this week and i was wondering how many practice essays should i write by then and how many sample essays should i read? I have really bad vocab and so what should i do to write sophisticatedly and express myself more clearly and fluently? So far i have a word bank but its not really helping.

My tips: do all of the above
the only way to get better is to write and write and write, and read widely, and practise all those words in your word bank.

How many practice essays? Ive done 4 so far
-
I've done about the same
I'd say keep going until you feel confident, but don't go overboard and tire yourself out
I probably wont get another one done, I'll just go over key ideas etcetc

I wrote 3 full context essays before each of our two context sacs last year (6 full length practise essays over the whole of our context study period) and a few more before the exam.
I half-assedly began and planned out many more though, possibly 10 or so.
