[QUOTE="Analbumcover, post: 2860432, member: 63725"] There is still an essay section. Most of the topics deal with economics, climate change, women's rights and conservation issues. There is "text speak" and "urban slang" on some of the essays. After you've done it for awhile it becomes apparent which essays belong to college-bound/honors/AP students and which don't. The good essays are usually devoid of major grammatical issues or improper language use. Last year I had to grade essays from the Texas STAAR exam. The particular batch I graded came from a reform school for middle school aged kids. Some of the stuff they wrote in their exams was rough- murder, suicide, sex. That was an interesting experience.
