I don't think that's a good idea. I'd say just go over the AWA Guide by ChineseBurned on this forum and don't exert yourself too much. A 4.5 is a decent score on the AWA and if you score below that the schools might start doubting if your essays are your own, if there arises a disparity.
Thank you, whiplash2411! will better practice with AWA.

Don't ignore it - just don't spend too much time on it. I also do much better when I'm not tired and the AWA drains me unnecessarily. Just make sure you have a intro, body (with supporting arguments) and conclusion. As long as the structure is there you should get a decent score. I spent about 15min each on my essays and got a 5.5.
