<p>A 5 paper is clearly competent. It presents a thoughtful response to the text, elaborating that response with appropriate examples and sensible reasoning. A 5 paper typically has a less fluent and complex style than a 6, but does show that its writer can usually choose words accurately, vary sentences effectively, and observe the conventions of written English.</p>

<p>on the letter it says i did not meet the requirment. ***ffffff 6 is the highest i got a 5</p>

<p>5 and 5 total score of 10</p>

<p>I read a previous thread it said that the paper is graded by 2 people and that your total score is the sum of the score from both of these people. So 6 + 6 = 12, which is the highest possible score you can get. To pass you need at least a 4 from each grader. 4 + 4 = 8.</p>
