Business Writing Results and Business Writing Results and ReflectionReflection After taking the

Business Writing Test, I had received a score of 3.16. My results said that my strong areas were in “Style and Tone” and my weak areas were in “Business Letters,” “Other Formats,” and “Rules of Grammar.” However, I scored higher than 57% of other people who have also taken the test.

I personally thought that the Business Writing Test was very hard. It asked me to answer questions about topics that I have yet to learn about. For example, I am not very knowledgeable in business letters. I didn’t think that it was fair to take a test about topics that I didn’t have any idea about. However, now that I have taken this test, I know that I need to improve in certain areas of business writing for the future.
