Transcription of Sample student essays - CCDMD

APPENDIX Sample student essays This appendix includes six student essays based on five readings, both short stories and non-fiction selections, included on previous English Exit Exams. The markers assessments for each of the three areas measured by the Exam: Comprehension and Insight, Organization of Response, and Expression, are listed at the beginning of each example. There are no comments on the essays themselves. This is consistent with the practice followed during the marking sessions, as markers do not make any corrections or notes on the original copies.
The student’s thesis statement is underlined twice. The topic sentences of each paragraph appear in italics. The student’s references to techniques and devices appear in bold letters. [Critical comments] appear in square brackets. Sample errors in Expression, particularly sentence structure or grammar, are shaded.
