Hi R.E.,

Flesch-Kinkaid is U.S. grade school level
12th grade is high school graduation.

If you type Flesch in the ask a question box in Word
and select the 'Readability Scores' topic the formula
for calculating the results is given.

The explanation of what is checked for each of the
"Grammar and writng style options" is in Word 2003 help under that title.

I can't get a higher-than-12 Flesch-Kincaid score no matter how verbose I
get. Also, does the number 12 mean 12th grade (i.e. high school senior year)
ot the 12th year of formal schooling (i.e. 4th year of college)?
