<p>I got score of 4 when I first submitted my essay but when I copied and pasted my body paragraphs so the same essay (except intro and conclusion) appeared twice, it gave me a score of 6. The only logical explanation for this is that it bases the mark on the actual length of the essay and not the content…</p>
<p>o and if anyone would like to give me feedback on my essay (since the dumb thing doesn’t work), it would be appreciated… thanks</p>
<p>Well, I don’t think it’s all about length. I got a 5 (10) on my essay and it only had 300 and some words. Then, I checked the essay responses they had and even an essay that got a 4 (8) had 400 and some words. I think that it’s true that it is based on length, however, it does take some other factors into consideration.</p>
<p>it marks on length.
remember, it’s “THEIR” essay responses. of course the ones they put out for everyone to see are going to be correctly graded based on CONTENT.</p>
<p>i wrote an essay of almost 800 words and got a 6 (12).
i copy and pasted the same darn thing onto the next practice test which, of course, had a completely different topic for you to write about. i still got 6 (12). :P</p>
<p>essay grader’s a piece of junk.</p>
