Score 59.823
According to the table, the total score was 2034, and the total average score was 59.823. Meanwhile, the maximum score of the five components,
including organization, content, grammar, punctuation, and style were 20. The organization’s average was 12.794; the content’s average was 12.235; grammar’s
average was 11.206; punctuation’s average was 12.147; and style’s average was 11.441 See Appendix 2.
The table above showed us how difficult writing skill is in English as mentioned in the previous chapter. There are five components that must be
assessed to get the total score that shows us the quality of the text that made. If we look at the average score, the higher average score on the table is the organization
component but it is only 12.794 before giving treatment while the maximum score is 20.
4.2.1.3 Significant Difference of Pre Test Between Experimental and Control Group
According to the table of pre test result for both groups, it can be seen that there was no significant difference of pre test between experimental and control
group. According to the table, total average score of the experimental group was 62.823, while total average score of the control group was 59.823. It meant that
the students’ achievement on both groups before treatments was relatively same. It can be proven by calculating using SPSS below.

If t-value is higher than t-table then there are differences between the experimental and the control group. If Sig. 2-tailed is lower than 0.05 then there
are differences between the control and the experimental group. From the table above, it can be seen that the score of t-value 1.228 is not higher than t-table
value 2.035 and Sig 2tailed value 0.228 is higher than 0.05. It could be concluded that it was not significant. It meant that there was no significant
difference in achievement between the experimental and the control groups on the pretest.
