I have the most horrible time writing essays for the AWA section of the GMAT. My biggest problem seems to be coming up with supporting examples for analysis of an issue topic. I completely blank on this section and feel like the examples i come up with are weak. (Thing is, I read quite a bit and up to date on current affairs) Has anyone else run into this issue?
Does anyone have any tips and/or suggestions on what i can practise to get better and coming up with supporting evidence really quickly?
THanks in advance!

One solution is to "fudge" your examples to fit the situation. Don't flat out make things up, but it's okay to adapt the facts to your situation. I've had plenty of former students do this and score 6.0 on their essays.
