So I have the assignment, but don't know the first thing about making it perfect for my teacher. HELP!!!

          To be honest, I'm not quite sure how many times I look over my papers. I tend to just read over them constantly just to make sure I have everything just the way I like them. To me, the benefits of looking over my work a million times are endless. I could see things that I missed the previous times I've looked at them. I could have a new comment I want to stick here and there. Really, they are totally endless.
          I could apply the "Consider the Evidence" part to my paper by maybe doing as much research as I can on the subject, just to see what I do and don't already know. Then I could use that information along with the common sense and natural knowledge of the subject to put together my Argument from Personal Experience paper.
          There were many useful things to me in the Analysis section of the reading. But the whole analyzing thing in general kind of confuses me, so that would be definitely be something to talk about in class.
          Some similarities that I see in the Rubric and that particular section are that the three basic characteristics are almost the same as what is expected in an outstanding type of paper. The only thing I noticed that was different was that in the Rubric it doesn't mention anything about reason over emotion or anything of that sort, but I guess it's because it's an argumentative paper, and not so much an opinion paper.
