The writing exam has two parts. In one part, you are asked to write an essay in which you take a side on an issue and defend your position. Part two asks you questions about grammar. Trained readers at a central CUNY location score the exam. They look for a clear argument that makes sense, good organization (one point logically follows the next), and just a few grammar or spelling errors.
