During my high school years, the good feedback I received from my teachers when turning in essays and such is what helped me define the specific features a good paper should contain. To me a good quality that separates an A paper from a C paper is the intro or the hook. That has to be a major feature that can help get a good grade, because it shows you have an understanding of the outline of how to make a good essay, and because it is a way to catch your readers attention. A good thesis is also a must if you want your paper to be an A paper, because it informs the reader about what they’re about to read. Another quality is that your paper needs to make sense; your sentences need to make sense. Readers tend to lose interest in reading your paper if they see that you didn’t put that much thought and work in your paper.
Lastly, another quality is that your paper doesn’t contain repetition of info or sentences. This is one problem that students tend to encounter more often, sometimes due to the lack of info you could put in your paper or simply running out of ideas. For me the most difficult quality to use is to avoid repetition. Whenever I run out of ideas or info to provide in a paper, I sometimes make the mistake of repeating things already said. The easiest to me is to provide a good hook and thesis, because you basically inform the reader about what they’re about to read, and just to find a good sentence which could catch the reader’s attention.
