Sample Essay Ranking

In the first sample essay, "Conflicting First Impressions; Austen's Misleading Character Introductions and How They Affect the Reader", I believe that the point that the writer is trying to make is not very strong. The thesis is more of a fact and not an arguable and interesting point. The evidence provided is fairly strong; however, the bulk of the essay relies on the thesis which, as stated earlier, is not very informative. The citations are correct and the style is acceptable so I would rank this essay in the B range.

In the second sample essay, the thesis compares two works and creates an arguable topic. The writer also analyzes his/her sources in great detail and provides contrasting arguments. The style is very concise and is written in a sophisticated way. Overall, I would rank this paper in the A range.

First of all, in the third essay, the title is way too long and confusing. The style of this essay is very awkwardly worded and lacks sophistication. Most of the sentence structure is very confusing and does not get the point across. Moreover, in the fourth paragraph, the writer tries to analyze too many quotes and can not focus on his thesis. I would rank this essay in the C range.
