This is from the College Board's website:
"The first essay is based on the candidate's reading, observation or experience, while the second requires candidates to synthesize and cite two sources that are provided. Candidates have 30 minutes to write the first essay and 40 minutes to read the two sources and write the second essay.
The essays must be typed on the computer."
" In one of the essays, candidates must develop a position by building an argument in which they synthesize information from two provided sources, (The second essay is the only one in which these two sources are provided, so they must be referencing the second essay here) which they must cite. The requirement that candidates cite the sources they use reflects the recognition of source attribution as an essential skill in college writing courses."
Hope this helps!
