How to Use Your Essay Score
A rubric score is most useful when you treat it as a revision checklist—not a final verdict. Use Yomu between drafts to see which dimension moved and what to fix next.

- Revise thesis and outline before polishing grammar
- Use feedback as coaching—not a guarantee of instructor grades
- Re-grade after major revisions to track improvement
- Pair scores with Yomu outline and thesis tools for faster fixes
