Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 11.58 College and Career Writing skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Statement of purpose (STEM PhD) excerpt: “I want to study AI because it is the future and very interesting.”

Which rewrite best fits a research audience?

AAI is the future and very interesting.

BI like AI and want to learn more about it.

CI want to do AI because it pays well.

DI’m interested in developing interpretable machine-learning models for clinical decision support, building on my senior thesis evaluating model explanations on ICU datasets.

Solution & Explanation:Research audiences expect specificity: a subfield, a problem, and evidence of preparation. The revision supplies all three.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Cover letter for a role requiring “attention to detail”: Draft includes three minor errors: wrong date, inconsistent formatting, and one typo in the company name.

Which action best demonstrates the skill the employer cares about?

ALeave the errors; content matters more than details.

BFix all errors and implement a final pre-send checklist (names, dates, titles, alignment, spelling) to prevent repeat mistakes across applications.

CFix only the typo and ignore formatting.

DChange the font so errors are less noticeable.

Solution & Explanation:For detail-focused roles, small errors are high-signal. A systematic proofreading process shows reliability beyond this one document.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Professional email after an interview: Candidate wants to address a weak answer they gave. Draft: “I forgot to mention something important in the interview.”

Which follow-up best adds value without sounding anxious?

AThank you again for your time. I wanted to add one detail related to our discussion of stakeholder updates: in my last role I sent weekly status briefs that reduced last-minute changes by 20%. I’m excited about the opportunity and happy to provide more information.

BI forgot to mention something important.

CI was nervous and didn’t answer well.

DPlease forgive my bad answer.

Solution & Explanation:The best follow-up is brief, relevant, and adds evidence. It frames the addition as value, not insecurity.
