<p>Okay.</p>
<p>I read Barrons Writing Workbook, Silverturtles Guide, Sparknotes 7 mistakes thing, and this crazy college grammar textbook I found at my school.</p>
<p>ANd my writing grade dropped. From a 62 to a 58.</p>
<p>HOW CAN I GET IT TO A 70???</p>
<p>What do you think your problem is? Analyze the types of problems you get wrong. Perhaps you can post some here.</p>
<p>I know people usually tend to tell you to read for critical reading, but for me, it helps me out with writing just as much, if not more.</p>
<p>Reading difficult essays such as those from The Bedford Reader will help you TREMENDOUSLY with knowing correct grammar by heart. The very formal and persuasive essays in the book, especially, are extremely well written and are as correct as can be.
For me, it’s helped me with sentence-correction to the point that simply reading the sentence to my self, I’m able to tell whether it’s correctly written or not.</p>
<p>I’m not sure whether this works for everyone, but I just gotta say THANK GOD for my AP Comp class.</p>
<p>Well, I’m in 10th grade… And Comp is like for 12th grade students… And I’m reading a lot of jules vernes…</p>
