By now, you should have completed a draft version of your essay for editing. I have read and commented on/edited all of the drafts that were turned in on Friday, and I have spoken with almost everyone about the current state of their essays.
Over the next few days, you should be working on final revisions and focusing on meeting the word count requirement (500 to 650 words, unless you have spoken to me about needing a different requirement for a specific college/university).
Before you are completely done, I strongly recommend reading your essay aloud or having someone else read it aloud to you (or both). Experiencing your writing in a different way may help you catch misused words, awkward phrasings, or other flow issues.
Your finished essay is worth up to 50 points, and I will be using this rubric for grading:

Good luck, and don't forget to ask me if you need help!
