Comp Exam Essay

<p>Will I be penalized if I go a little over the word limit on the comp exam? I sent an email to the communication's program director, and she hasn't emailed me back yet. I need to submit the essay by 1 pm, so if you know, please post an answer. Thanks!</p>

<p>i dont they care much. like for applying, the common app has a 500 word essay. that means stay around 500… dont send in a 1200 word essay. but up to 600 ish should be ok… just dont make it obvious that it is too long</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks Antarius! At around the same time you replied, the communication program director emailed me back and gave me the same response.</p>

<p>maybe I AM the communications director o_O</p>

<p>haha. but im glad i didnt give you a wrong answer then. good luck!</p>

<p>I guess I’m gonna take the class by default
I missed the first date cause I was backpacking
and I totally forgot about the second one</p>

<p>Oh well</p>

<p>half of Rice takes it. its not a big deal. I took it with some friends. minimal work and we would hang out and have fun.</p>

<p>enjoy the class!</p>

<p>just submitted with 5 min to spare ahahaha. guess it would be good to have a refresher on how to write :-(</p>

<p>WAIT,is this the second one?..do we have any other chances to take it???..wow i just epic failed.</p>

<p>this was the final chance to take it…</p>

<p>the second one is done. its not a big deal. tak the class</p>

<p>lol so i’m not the only moron who forgot
summer will do that to ya</p>

<p>Do you think if I talk to them they might still let me take it?..ah, I’ve become too lazy.</p>

<p>I think you just need more sleep.</p>

<p>I asked for an extension, they said no</p>

<p>Just get more sleep</p>

<p>ha</p>

<p>yeah they are kinda strict. but seriously, there are 6 sections a semester of COMM 103… so there isnt a shortage pof people taking it</p>

<p>its also easy to do well</p>

<p>about the essay, do we get back a rubric of our weaknesses? Or is it just a sheet of paper with pass, low pass and fail? I’m a bit neurotic like that.</p>
