how many points off for confusing two rhetorical devices?

<p>I meant to write logos but wrote ethos instead :( in my essay I did mention appeal to logic, being rational, etc. </p>

<p>would this greatly affect my score? :( I'm so panicky now.</p>

<p>If your thesis said something else that you didn’t discuss, you can get no higher than a 5 :(.</p>

<p>I’m sorry. :(</p>

<p>I did write about a number of other strategies, is that ok? man this really sucks, I just panicked and put etho instead of logos argh</p>

<p>If it reads like a slip (remember it is a rough draft), then not a big deal. If you made numerous mistakes, which makes you look like you are stabbing for a word you DON’T know, then you drop. I have seen 8 and 9 essays that make an “honest” mistake like that. Especially if you explained what you meant, should not be a huge deduction.</p>
