    Sasa Milosevic
    This document outlines Magoosh's rubric for scoring essay responses on the GRE and GMAT on a scale of 0 to 6. It evaluates essays based on four criteria: quality of ideas, organization, writing style, and grammar/usage. Higher scores are given for well-developed ideas, clear organization, varied sentence structures and word choice, and proper grammar. Lower scores indicate vague, disorganized writing with flaws in style, mechanics, and English usage.
