Hi Everyone.
I noticed today that the TECEP Introduction to Comparative Politics is changing. The changes are effective the April 2015 term. There's still 80 multiple choice questions, but it now also has 2 essay questions. Passing score is 70%. They also added something new at the bottom of the exam description PDF that I really like. They're actually giving a breakdown on how points are awarded for the essay questions. It says:
"Essays will be graded according to the following scoring guide:
⢠Response is complete and relevant. (3 points)
⢠Supporting examples display subject matter knowledge. (3 points)
⢠Response is analytical rather than merely descriptive. (2 points)
⢠Response is logically organized. (2 points)"
