No.

But even if I told you, they change them. So whats the point?

Basically the proctor has you open the book and she reads those stupid instructions. Start brainstorming then! Take a minute to write out a backbone for your essay, then spend the rest of the time writing!
 
ALL THE ESSAYS ARE ABOUT IS FIND A SOLUTION TO ANY SOCIAL PROBLEM!!!!!!!!! Just think about any social problem and write about solutions to them!!!! It might be on the pcat, if you come up with the right one. Think about the problems the country is facing and how do you solve them. You do not need any specific topics, cus no one knows wats gonna be on the actual test!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
How in-depth are the problems presented in these questions? Are they normal everyday scenarios or certain problems from the political world (like wars, corrupt politicians, etc)
