TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The "Writing Assessements Results" link has some interesting statistical
information.
Makes me wonder how most of us would have fared on similar tests when we
were in school. I did quite well on writing assignments, and it always came easy to
me (I procrastinated, but when I finally sat down and worked on a writing
assignment I cranked it out quickly and received high marks). I was among the
highest in my class on the standardized English tests, but I really don't know how
those tests equate to actual writing skills.
Do you think we pick up most of our writing skills after we are out of high school,
or, if you are a so-so writer when you're 15, you'll be that way when you're 50?
