How are essays graded?

Post by YalteseFalcon » Sat Feb 18, 2017 11:02 pm

Specifically, how much flexibility will graders have? One Barbri lecturer (I think Epstein) mentioned that grades are done on a tablet. The examiner taps a button corresponding to an issue. If you hit that issue/element/item, you get credit. This seems very structured. Can examiners afford credit beyond what is on that list of items?

I am NOT in an UBE/MEE jurisdiction. PA.
