Hey there,
I need some info. Took my college writing exam today and it says it needs to be sent away to be reviewed. I thought that I had nailed the exam so was super upset. Anyone else have this happen? Did you end up passing? I know they were good essays but good enough to be graded by a college professor? I am not sure.
Thanks

As far as I know, all tests that have essays are graded by actual people - even the CLEP College Composition exam is graded by college professors (although not from any particular school). I don't personally know any essay based tests that are entirely graded by computer.

Uexcel writing is graded by the computer - but they do pull a certain amount of tests for professor grading. My understanding is that they do that to make sure the computer grading is accurate.

Has there been any feedback whether it is a good or bad thing that these essays were sent for grading? I have been doing very well using MyAccess. Now I am thinking I failed.
