I scored a 6.0 using myohmy's template. I was taken in for a shock. Thanks myohmy! I suggest people take this template and build their own statements and styles surrounding the way the intro was made and how the points were structured. Thanks once again.

This really is a great template! I hadn't practiced any AWA until I found this post about 5 days before my test. With minimal effort and practice I was able to apply this template to the actual GMAT and received a 6.0. Thanks myohmy for your post!

I used this template in GMAT and got a 6.0 in AWA.
The official results came in just today.
I must say that this is one killer template and I am glad that I came across it.

Thanks for crafting the best template available for GMAT argument essays.
I will be greatful If you could find time to provide example on how do you attack "unsubstantiated premises".
For no one else writing about GMAT essays talks about attacking "unsubstantiated premises", everybody talks about attacking assumptions.

Paragraph 2
For me, paragraph two always attacks the premises of the author's argument. I usually jot down a couple of premises on my board -- these are things that show up in the author's argument, usually without any evidence provided. So 99% of the time, I attack the lack of evidence that the author bases his premises on. I usually begin with some version of:
The primary issue with the author's reasoning lies in his unsubstantiated premises.
