| Good ideas Gregarion, but I would max you out at a 10. Unfortunately, I have found out that taking the fence on the topic doesn't stick too well with the CollegeBoard graders. I have heard that one of their grading paradigms is "Did writer take a specific side." Furthermore, the fact that you should mention the length of your essays baffles me. It isn't just you; multiple people post essay lengths, and people seem to be using that as a guideline to measure how good the essay was. I have gotten an 11 from a 1.25 page essay in December '07. So, could someone explain the length issue to me? Thanks. |
