Grade Reflection 10/26

I felt I did better than I thought I would. I didn’t feel my best on this paper but I still got a decent grade. The feedback that was most helpful was the feedback that made me question my point that I was making therefore helping me to decide if the point was really clear or not. There wasn’t a pattern of errors from this paper compared to the first one because the first paper was a much better paper compared to this one. I had a much stronger claim on the first paper compared to this one and I was much more clear on what I wanted and needed to say. I can use the feedback from both papers to make my claim and points I make in the argumentative essay stronger so that I write clearly and effectively.
