Sophia.org English Composition II -- Grader Experiences

[rpmranger]

Yes! I passed! I only needed 111 points to pass. 

I attached the draft to the touchstone, along with previous feedback from the previous graders after the essay. So it was formatted like this:

• Essay to Be Graded
  
• References from Essay, make sure you include the changes they asked for. Put on separate page.
  
• Reflection. Put on separate page. Bold the titles, I had a professor dock me points for not bolding. 
  
• Previous Essay WITH the full references and FEEDBACK from original grader (including the comments)
  
• Attached my outline / bibliography after these with the FEEDBACK from original graders (including the comments)
  

MAke sure you use Times NEw Roman and 12pt font. They are panicky. They are super strict about perfect indentation and a space after paragraphs for me. 

I resubmitted 1 essay from earlier too (the rogerian) and I attached the original essay with the changes the grader asked for. The new grader told me my original was better LOL and gave me the score based on that. 

Krystal Kvinge and Cameron (something) were terrible graders. ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE.

James Elrod offered REAL feedback, and offered real suggestions, and grave great criticism. All of his comments made sense, weren't biased, and actually made some amazing suggestions. I think he took the time to review the sources too, like he suggested different paragraph references, etc, to drive my point better.

James was great, I had him for the entire course. He actually knows what he is talking about.
