The AWA score is reported
separately and has no bearing on the all important 200-800
combined score. Once you complete your test, your essays speed
out through the ETS network in two different directions. One
set of essays is processed by computer software (E-rater)
designed to evaluate your writing according to pre-programmed
criteria. The other is emailed to a professional grader. The
final step is to average all four scores (two for each essay)
and round the result to the nearest half point. For non-native
English speakers, scores of 4.0 are perfectly acceptable and
5.0 or better represent a superlative effort. In theory, the
score and essays provide admissions committees with valuable
information about your communication skills - information
surely useful when comparing two candidates who are otherwise
similar. The AWA essays also give admissions officers a points
of reference if they doubt the authorship of a candidate's
admissions essays.
