SAT的寫作考試，要求的是一篇有專業性的寫作，而不是一篇日記或隨筆。所以使用俚語不應該在SAT的考試中出現。例如，在高考的時候，考生把我要去寫成俺要去加有地方方言的語言方式。

　　下面讓我們通過英文的例子來說明;

　　例1;Brians mother reprimanded him for blowing his physic test.

　　Improved: Brians mother reprimanded him for failing his physic test.

　　同樣的，考生在寫作的時候，也應該盡量避免太多學術性強的語言。批卷的老師很有可能并不想你一樣是個電腦高手。他或她可能只明白一些初級的電腦詞匯，對于那些技術性強的詞匯，可以一竅不通。下面讓我們通過英文的例子來說明;

　　例2;Close-support, transport, and reconnaissance assistance is provided by the S-3X helicopter, which is the most cost effective in a crane configuration.

　　Improved: The S-3X helicopter provides support, transportation, and reconnaissance. However, the helicopter is most cost effective when it works as a crane.
