On page 190 of the official verbal reasoning guide, I found a score 5 response to an issue essay with only 382 words. So perhaps word count is not as important now.

ChatGPT had the following suggestions: Essay Evaluation Score: 4 out of 6 Strengths: Clear Thesis and Position: The essay clearly states a position, disagreeing with the prompt and providing a nuanced perspective by acknowledging some negative impacts. Relevant Examples: The essay uses specific examples, such as communication through WhatsApp and the Dungeons and Dragons community, to support the argument. Structured Argument: The essay is well-organized with distinct paragraphs for each main point and a clear concession paragraph. Areas for Improvement: Depth of Analysis: The essay could benefit from a deeper analysis of the examples provided. Explaining how these examples specifically enhance human relationships could strengthen the argument. Addressing Counterarguments: While the essay acknowledges a counterpoint, it could further explore how these negative aspects might be mitigated or why they are less significant compared to the benefits. Variety of Examples: The essay could include a broader range of examples, such as how technology impacts professional relationships, educational interactions, or cross-cultural exchanges. Language and Style: There are a few areas where the language could be polished for greater clarity and impact. Avoiding repetition and using more varied sentence structures would improve readability. Suggestions for Improvement Expand Analysis: When discussing the benefits of technological communication (e.g., WhatsApp), elaborate on how this impacts the quality of relationships. Mention specific benefits like emotional support, maintaining long-distance relationships, or collaborative work. For the Dungeons and Dragons example, discuss how forming such communities contributes to mental well-being, a sense of belonging, and personal growth. Broaden Examples: Include examples from different areas of life. For instance, mention how technology has improved professional networking through platforms like LinkedIn or how it has facilitated cultural exchanges through social media and online forums. Discuss educational impacts, such as online learning platforms that connect students and teachers globally. Address Counterarguments More Fully: Explore the negative impacts in more depth. For example, discuss how reliance on digital communication might lead to misunderstandings or weakened social skills. Provide potential solutions or mitigating factors, such as the role of hybrid models combining virtual and face-to-face interactions or the importance of digital literacy in maintaining healthy relationships. Refine Language and Style: Ensure each paragraph transitions smoothly to the next. For instance, the transition between the advantages and disadvantages sections could be more fluid. Avoid redundancy. Phrases like "First of all" and "Second of all" can be replaced with more varied transitions. Proofread for grammatical accuracy and to ensure sentences are concise and clear. Revised Excerpt Example Original: First of all, technological advancement has resulted in more benefits for our interconnectivity because, as a species, we are no longer constrained by distance. Revised: Firstly, technological advancements have greatly enhanced our ability to connect by eliminating the barriers of distance.

Introduction • Hook (Generalization, anecdote, interesting fact, trend, quote, etc) o Introduces the topic (nothing more): don’t write your thesis or supporting idea here! • Shift to prompt o Makes your essay more cohesive(make it flow better); an abrupt shift to your thesis is awkward • Thesis (most important part of the essay…by far) o This baby is the boss that controls everything o The thesis you choose exists on a spectrum(strongly agree, mostly agree, neutral, mostly disagree, strongly disagree) o Greg recommends “mostly agree” or “mostly disagree” • Outline (tells you reader how you’re going to structure your essay) o Don’t neglect this bad boy; academic readers like to know what’s coming(how many reasons/examples) Body Paragraph (two of them) • Topic sentence that introduces your first reason that supports your thesis o It is imperative that this introduces the overall idea of the paragraph (the “controlling” idea) and that it supports your thesis. The topic is a mini thesis • Example o You need a good example here, preferably from history, politics, economics etc o If you can’t think of one, use a good hypothetical o No one wants to hear about Uncle Bob • Example 2(Optional) o All the same rules apply o Why 2 Further develops the idea Increases word count Discourages “story telling” • Development/Explanation o You need to develop your idea. You need to connect the reason to the thesis. You need to explain why this matters o 2-3 sentence of development is good enough • Remember there are 2 of these! Concession Paragraph (counterpoint) • Topic sentence that introduces a counterpoint to your thesis o Remember this is why we "mostly" agreed or disagreed. It leaves room for nuance. • Example o Same rules apply • (Optional) Example 2 o Same rules apply • Development/Explanation o Same rules apply Conclusion • Doesn't actually matter much. I mean you need it. It can't not exist. But all you want to do is rephrase your thesis and your supporting ideas and wrap this baby up. Your welcome!
