any idea how to interpret the readablity indices?
my first essay submitted was rated as:
Readability Indices
Flesch Kincaid Reading Ease 55
Flesch Kincaid Grade Level 10.4
Gunning Fog Score 12
SMOG Index 9.1
Coleman Liau Index 12.3
Automated Readability Index 10.7
Text Statistics
No. of sentences 14
No. of words 270
No. of complex words 34
then i tried another writing exercise:
Readability Indices
Flesch Kincaid Reading Ease 52.2
Flesch Kincaid Grade Level 10.6
Gunning Fog Score 13.3
SMOG Index 9.6
Coleman Liau Index 13.6
Automated Readability Index 11.3
Text Statistics
No. of sentences 15
No. of words 277
No. of complex words 41
My question is, which one of the essays has a higher potential to score higher band?
