It’s true that you can revise one English 101 essay, including mid-term, exam. If you decide to do so, you must submit a one-page revision proposal letter, explaining why you wish to revise your work and unfolding your revision plan. In your proposal, present a plan to work on a facet or two of your writing: idea development, organization, sentence structure, usage, support, etc. You must turn in your proposal by April 5th, 2026. Specify the day on which you will turn in the revised work. Your revised work must be accompanied by the proposal and the graded draft. Remember that just because you choose to revise your paper does not mean you will automatically receive a higher grade. Please make sure to talk to me first before you decide to revise your essay.
