    Study Discussion

    Unfair assessment?

    Does anyone know if key BOS terms HAVE to be used in an assessment? We had a really confusing english assessment today and there was no key word used for the essay question!?!? It didn't tell us what to do. this was the question: "Emma is just as much about herself as it is about Clueless"...
