Beyond the Cut-Point: College Writing Readiness for Linguistically Diverse Students
by Stefani R. Relles & Blanca Rincón - July 01, 2019

It subsequently considers the extent to which these students may be misplaced into postsecondary English remediation even though they are capable of writing at a college-level.
