<p>Please grade my SAT essay and please also explain them. Your honest input will be highly appreciated. I will make sure to return the favor. I have written the essay in 25 minutes and then typed it up. Please be brutally honest!!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Here is my essay :</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Please grade on a scale of 0-6, 6 being best. This is the first time I’ve written a SAT essay.</p>

<p>Thanks!! :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :)</p>

2

<p>Please help :)</p>

3

<p>if you can’t grade your own essay, how do you expect to grade others?</p>

4

<p>

</p>

<p>I know how to grade essays. I don’t think I should grade them to eliminate chances of bias.</p>

5

<p>Come on, any insight will be highly appreciated :)</p>

6

<p>I would give it a high 5-low 6 (fourth paragraph “abert einstein” but that’s only minor) just a knee-jerk grade I have no basis in how I scored. Just my personal opinion, it’s pretty amazing that you could actually write that in 25mins and that it would fit on two pages handwritten. My only real problem with the essay is that you didn’t include any personal experiences.</p>

7

<p>4… maybe 5.</p>

<p>I felt like some examples weren’t explained thoroughly.</p>

8

<p>ok, but… ehh.
it isnt extraordinary, and you should work on your synonyms. (i hate it when the same words are used twice, one sentence after another- exemplify).</p>

<p>really, it is an ok, good essay. i like your examples, and i felt you fully explained them. but a more personal point of view in this particular essay might have been better.</p>

<p>bottom line- 4.5, maybe a 5 (maybe)</p>

9

<p>5 on a 6 scale,
11 on a 12 scale</p>

10

<p>I’d give it a nine.</p>

11

<p>this deserves
11</p>

<p>lol^</p>

<p>i don’t know why, but after going to that link…i couldn’t stop laughing.</p>

14

<p>i give it a 11… only because i sense it is missing a touch… though it’s just feeling…</p>

15

<p>wow, this is strange</p>

<p>MOST OF THE PEOPLE on this thread seem to be nice, and this will prolly make me sound like a jerk, but…
I’ll be honest</p>

<p>I think its about a 3.
Maybe 4, but not likely.</p>

<p>Your score on this would be 7-8
I’ve written far longer, more quality (not to brag) essays, and they were only given 9’s so…yeah.</p>

<p>Sorry to be a bummer, but I think I’m correct in my analysis</p>

16

<p>i would give this essay a 8
grade mine :D</p>

17

<p>hi am from Egypt i will have the sat test just in six days i hope you help me grade my essay it is my first time to write here please grade my essay and tell me about your oppinion in my way of writting how to improve it and so :D</p>

<p>here it is the essay assingment</p>

<p>do society’s rules limit our decisions such that our choices are not freely made?</p>

<p>my essay</p>

<p>many people think that they are free to do whatever they want and nothing can effect their decisions but ,ironically, our decisions are effected by many things. first of all the situations we face in our daily life effects us , our society’s costumes and traditions effects our decision, and finally the country we live and the nature of people ruling like the that of ‘‘Hosny Mubark’’ before the Egyptian revolution effects our decisions
the situation we face in our daily life are the best example to effect our decisions. imagine a family decided to spend the summer in France ,and they have prepared the needed money to travel, but a sudden situation had happened like they are robbed and their money was gone ,so they decided to spend the summer in their country with their relatives. weather they spend the summer with their relatives or in France their situation effects their decision and make them fluctuate it
moreover, the costumes and the traditions of the country we have brought up in also effects our decisions in life. like in my country,Egypt,girls are not allowed to wear short clothes ,like short skirts , or have a boyfriends because of the costumes of the egyptian people an the religious traditions in Egypt which prevent them from doing that ; however, having a boy friend and freely wear what you want is accepted in society in other countries like Europian countries and american countries and is not forbidden. so the costumes of the country we live in and its religion may effect our decisions
Also, the rulers of the country and their policies may effect the peoples’ opinions like what people coexisted before the egyptain revolution. Before the egyptain revolution people used to be tortured . they used to have their essential rights stolen in their country like expressing their opinions , having the freedom to write whatever they want in journals. they were always prevented to understand anything, and if anyone do express his opinion he/or she will be jailed or sentenced and accused of treason ; consequently, people used to express in their journals what they have to say according to them no what in their mind because they are afraid of their torture
ultimately it is how we perceive matters that actually counts. the situations we face , the traditions of a country , the nature of our ruling people may effect our decisions and make us change it like take the ones that not in our intentions . their is no pure decision, always must be effected .</p>

<p>please grade it</p>
