AP Exam Scoring

Today, I was relieved the attention turned away ever so slightly from the certainty and doubt fiasco and focused on the rubric for the AP Exam writing section. Although it was from 2012, it still held valuable information. I was tasked with reading previous student's essays and evaluating how they would be scored if I were the scorer. Some were... less than adequate, but the one that scored an 8 gives me hope that I could aim that high! Or at least get a 6.
