<p>My friend got a 11, and I got a 10. Is there a big difference here?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’ll solve this mathematically
Difference=11-10=1
Essay is scored out of 12
1/12=.083
8.3% is not a big percentage, ergo the difference is not that “big.” </p>
<p>More seriously, both 10 and 11 are excellent scores. The 11 means that one of the graders was more generous than the other (or more harsh).</p>
<p>oh ok, thanks</p>
