I "studied" for the GRE essay for as long as it took to read some advice online: Write as much as you can. Just keep writing.

Formula: Your opening paragraph needs to make your main point and set your tone. Then begin the next paragraph with an idea and fill in details. Lot of details. Repeat. Repeat again. Keep repeating until you have enough time left to write a final summary paragraph. Summarize what you said, and Presto! You are done.

(Result: Perfect score.)
