diagnostics

Many legal writing professors are familiar with the excellent diagnostic tests (to gauge weaknesses in new law students' writing skills) in the comprehensive textbook by Oats & Enquist, The Legal Writing Handbook:  Analysis, Research, and Writing (4th ed., Aspen 2006).  Other sources for basic writing diagnostic tests and training include:

Diana Hacker's exercises, under "Additional Resources," at http://bcs.bedfordstmartins.com/bedhandbook/default.asp

Marc Grinker's exercises at http://www.kentlaw.edu/academics/lrw/grinker/LWTA.htm
