please grade my essay?

<p>please tell me in detail what and where i am lacking. it is suppose to be a short essay.
so here is the question:
Is honesty always the best policy? </p>

<p>"Honesty is the best policy "
I truly and sincerely believe in the above statement. No matter how hard our life becomes but honesty is that policy which can make our life very simple.
When we say a lie it certainly makes the situation easy to tackle but that will be for a short period of time because the following situation becomes more complex by lying and then we again lie in order to tackle the situation for the particular time. But the day comes when we have to face the reality and that moment becomes the most difficult moment to be tackled. When we lie we might feel relax but actually our conscience makes us feel guilty and as a result we have to carry the burden in our heart.</p>

<p>Honesty is the most important factor for building up relationships. If a relationship has the ‘X’ factor of honesty then that relationship certainly becomes the most powerful & invincible relation.</p>

<p>We say lie and we our self make our life harder and we don’t realize that it is all due to our own mistakes. Whereas we should remember our values & we should be strong enough to be honest in order to live a life of pure wisdom and simplicity.</p>

<p>3/12</p>

<p>Length, run-on sentences, bad diction/syntax, no insight/explanation… This is the epitome of what SAT graders DON’T want to see.</p>

<p>^ 3 is a bit too low IMO.</p>

<p>I’d say about 5/12. Most of your essay is just saying general things about the topics and without any examples. You should put at least two examples backing up your argument for a higher score. Also, some of your grammar like “feel relax” and “saying lies” is completely wrong. Work on that too.</p>

<p>This is DEFINITELY not a 5/12. A 5 denotes that one grader awarded this essay a 3/6, which this is not.</p>

<p>And a 3/12 denotes that one reader gave this a 1, which this is definitely not either.</p>

<p>This is a really bad essay. Bigb is absolutely correct.</p>
