Very convincing arguments. Position is clearly stated and reasons are well supported with solid details from the text. Makes me question my position somewhat.

Good arguments. Position is clearly stated and reasons are supported with some details/examples from the text, but they could be more specific at times. Quality detail outweighs generalities.
