But no, I don’t really think it is that subjective, if you write in an eloquent, but not pretentious, style, you will get a 12.



If the grading is not subjective, how do you account for the fact that of those who receive at least one 6 for their essay, only 1/4 get a second 6? Moreover, it is difficult to believe that well over 99% of the test-takers are unable to write eloquently.
