Twinky827 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 What IS the writing test? Is there a format? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaydee Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Once you\'ve finished the writing test in approximately 52 minutes.Huh? What do you mean with writing test? How come I was not informed of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popeter123 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 The test will consist of 3 parts.1. Writing Skills - This is a simple portion of the test where you will be given a prompt, and you are to write just a 4 paragraph response. We don\'t expect English majors, just an average understanding of the English language to the point where you can respond to the prompt. I expect to see at least 2 compound and 2 complex sentences. If you don\'t know what they are, look \'em up.2. Creativity - This is the portion of the test in which you will demonstrate your creative ability. You will be given a scenario, and your task is to write a simple, 2 paragraph response in which you detail your solution in a creative way. Should be simple.3. Political Theory - The hardest part of the test. Here, you will answer 5 questions on politics. They will not be covering candidates or anything. These questions will cover political theory, from ideology to government form, and you are expected to answer them in your own words. Any plagiarism will not be accepted.

Charzy Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 It\'s actually 8 questions.The two writing sections have a total of 12 paragraphs of writing to do between them. The questions can be done pretty easily by looking things up on google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imandreas Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 How many sentences per paragraph? Where I am, a paragraph is 7-10 massive sentences. Is this less per paragraph? If not, then I will screw up horribly, as writing is my absolute worst subject.Also, plagiarism is not allowed. HAHAHA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I regularly get five paragraph projects, with have to be 7-10 sentences a paragraph, AND include citations, extra paragraphs on main people, etc. Normal project is about 10-12 paragraphs. That is 70-120 sentences. *sob* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
