Had a big surge that pushed me through the last stack — which was tough at times, since I just handed out a semester-low of a 6% on an essay. I’d like to say that it was the lowest grade I’ve ever given on an essay in my life. I’d like to.
On the plus side, the same class saw a 95% grade, too. So that’s good.
Now, to bed.

I don’t even understand how someone gets a 6%.

I’m afraid I can’t really explain it in a public forum, Mary — except to say it was deserved. It really ought to have been a 0%, but I gave it a symbolic 6%.
