- Five documents have been designated on the Assignment Sheet as a Proofreading
Check.

and have zero scoring errors on the first scored attempt to earn an A in

document job grade.
- If any typos are scored, a grade of zero is assigned for proofreading
resulting in a 1% deduction from the final grade average.
- To make up a lost point, click Create to retype the document again,
starting from a blank screen.
