1
00:00:00,540 --> 00:00:00,780
Okay.

2
00:00:00,780 --> 00:00:07,170
Everybody in this video, we're going to take a look at another general letter by a student.

3
00:00:07,380 --> 00:00:15,480
And this is a letter that a the student actually did in response to a general letter prompt.

4
00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:23,400
And just as in the previous video, I'm going to show you the original letter.

5
00:00:23,790 --> 00:00:30,030
And then after you're seeing the original letter and taking a look at what the student did in the original

6
00:00:30,030 --> 00:00:38,520
letter, which is right here, then after that, we are able to move down is the original letter of

7
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:39,030
the student.

8
00:00:39,030 --> 00:00:43,980
And you can stop the tape right here if you need to be able to.

9
00:00:46,180 --> 00:00:48,280
Just read through it at your own liberty.

10
00:00:50,860 --> 00:00:58,110
And then this is the edited version and you can really see how I really went through the students letter.

11
00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:59,710
They had a lot of mistakes.

12
00:01:00,490 --> 00:01:07,660
They ended up putting the the first body paragraph point into their introduction and just had a lot

13
00:01:07,660 --> 00:01:13,300
of errors in this letter that really hold it back from being its best.

14
00:01:14,530 --> 00:01:24,040
And then after you see the edited version here, then you're able to that's another paragraph.

15
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:29,740
The last paragraph of the student is a lot longer, of course, because I really went through it with

16
00:01:29,740 --> 00:01:34,690
just kind of tearing it up so I can build it into something great.

17
00:01:36,220 --> 00:01:41,170
And then at the end we see the revised version of it.

18
00:01:41,930 --> 00:01:42,320
Right.

19
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:47,600
So really, really, when you take a look at this, when really, really take a look at it and look

20
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,540
at the original one.

21
00:01:49,550 --> 00:01:54,950
Look at all the changes and edits I made and then look at the revised final version of it.

22
00:01:54,950 --> 00:02:00,650
So you can really see how you really do something that gets a great score, right?

23
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,730
It's the same it's about the same quantity of of words.

24
00:02:05,140 --> 00:02:08,900
You know, mine's a little bit longer, but it's the same about the same quantity of words.

25
00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:11,330
But it's about quality, right?

26
00:02:11,330 --> 00:02:13,070
It's about the quality of your writing.

27
00:02:13,070 --> 00:02:14,900
That's what we're really looking at.

28
00:02:14,900 --> 00:02:24,080
So I hope this really helps you guys in terms of being able to see what the requirements are to be able

29
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:30,740
to perform really well and what how actually the graders might be looking at your letters when you're

30
00:02:30,740 --> 00:02:31,700
writing them.

31
00:02:31,820 --> 00:02:34,610
