References to the texts are not clearly connected to a central idea or may be repetitive. The response may be underdeveloped. A sense of purpose may be evident, but errors can be distracting • 2 - The two essay is inadequate. While there is an attempt to address the topic, understanding of the texts or the task may be seriously flawed. Reference to only one text does not constitute synthesis. The response may be seriously underdeveloped. Errors are recurring, distracting, and impede meaning.

The writing is well organized and reflects a strong command of the conventions of language. Errors may be present, but are not distracting. • 4 - The four essay is competent. Understanding of the texts tends to be literal and superficial. Some synthesis is apparent. The essay may rely heavily on paraphrasing. References are present and appropriate, but may be limited.
