Self-Assessment
I think I should receive anywhere from a 57 points to 60 points. I think I have all higher
order questions but maybe one or two arent. All my questions follow the 40 item writing
rules. I believe it has a great layout and is neat and easy to read. So I think 57 points to 60
points would be a sufficient grade for this assignment.
