Should we even bother in the essays if they do not count to the score?

Hey I been studying for the GRE for 2 weeks! and to my knowledge the essays do not count to your score or count very little. I seen in week 4 of the two month plan from Gregg there are sections dedicated to the essays, is there any benefit on learning essays material?

It depends, some schools asks for a minimum essay grade , thus, if you’re applying it to any of those schools then I would suggest you go with the essay exercises that are mentioned in the plan otherwise it’s up-to you
