Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>I mean, for the may sat I wrote (IMO) a horrible essay... yet i got a 9. I thought i wrote a great essay on the CB on-line thing and only got a 4.. i thought it was 5 if not 6. So I am rewriting it now and seeing how this computer grades the essays. Does anyone know if this computer grades harder? thanks.</p>

<p>it's a computer..you can't expect it to be as accurate as a human scorer.</p>

<p>thats funny. In PR prep, I thought I wrote a good essay and got a 7. Then, I thought I wrote a crappy CB essay and got a 12. Just the opposite of you.</p>
