Whether you score 0 or you score 100 on the ETS, you still get the 15 percentage points added to your grade.

This is no longer true, when I took my most recent capstone they have started to scale the grades. Others have reported the same.
Here is the scale for the MFT, there was a similar one for the Profile but I don't have the scale handy
150-200 = 100%
130-149 = 85%
120-129 = 75%

That sucks.
I guess they had too many people doing what I did, rushing and not trying to score well.

I'm taking the Capstone now and this is what we were given as far as the ETS profile was concerned:
The ETS PP is graded as follows:
440-500 = 100
410-439 = 85
400-409 = 75

I assume you are doing the Liberal Arts Capstone?
There are 2 things you have to worry about: forum posts and written assignments. Write down the due dates somewhere.

Is ETS written communication assessment proctored and timed? I just read on the syllabus that MFT is proctored; not sure if it is true? I have a hard time writing an essay for a short period of time. Thanks.

Yes, it's proctored through ProctorU.
Also, to reiterate what's stated above (because you're quoting the old info), you are no longer guaranteed 100% toward your grade just by completing the ETS. You'll get either 100, 85, or 75.

This course is going to be so hard to accomplish Im I just start the course and it seems very intensive you need to constantly posting and writing, then my question regarding the ETS what happen if you score less than 75% you will end loosing your grade?

You can't score less than 75%.
ETS score range is 400-500. 400 score = 75%.
