This essay is from the 2014 AP Language test. It is a synthesis essay similar to a DBQ or SAT persuasion essay. Read the instructions carefully--more than once. You need a clear position and must support it using ONLY the attached sources. In class, I would give you 20 minutes to review the sources, and then give you 55 minutes to write the following day. (The AP test would give you 20 + 40 minutes) I have attached the 9 point rubric. I will score using column 2 (I usually use column 3, but since we are not in class I figured it should be more lenient). Do not spend more than 90 minutes on this. Submit to turnitin.com. Please email any questions. I will have a zoom class in the near future to discuss upcoming assignments.
