Rather than checking the application ability.

Well I applied to the concepts to other disciplines and explained well and clearly stated why this is related and important, I couldn't even earn single mark for this. Even though I asked why I couldn't earn marks for this component, the TA graded my essay just said I didn't, which doesn't make sense, as I clearly did what the grading rubric(which exists obviously for them) urged.

She didn't give further explanation, just giving the marks. Basically what I can see is, I'm loosing marks without getting further explanation of this.

Yes. Of course I can request re-grading. But I can't take the risk of getting lower grade.

I even checked the 'ideal' answer they released, I don't see the part that why this is important to bring(from other discipline and such as connected to each other).

For now, What I see is, the TA just want to maintain the grades low. I regard this as a conniving way to drop marks rather than evaluating the application skills truthfully.

To previous students who took this course, can you give me realiatic advice and tips to earn full marks for novel connection?

Am I missing something?
