Half an essay?

Test Preparation
1

<p>I'm not discussing an SAT question or anything. Just a concept.</p>

<p>If someone writes a very good introduction to his essay, in which he states his point well, gives a first good example, writes half of his second (even better) example, but then runs out of time and so the essay ends on half a sentence, having filled one of the essay pages. How badly will that effect his score?</p>

<p>Using these other scores
Writing MC: 0-3 mistakes
Math MC: 0-3 mistakes
Reading: 0-4 mistakes</p>

<p>What would be the best possible score, and what would be a realistic score? (let's take 2, 1, 3 mistakes respectively as "realistic")</p>

<p>All I can say is that graders are very subjective. My friend wrote the same essay each time he took it (a total of three). The first time he got a 10. The second he got an 11. And the last time he got a 12…</p>
