I agree. On one of my attempts, we were talking to a proctor at lunch and
got on the topic of scoring. He told us how he had to fail a guy with a 79.
He told us he had spent an extra half an hour looking for 1 additional point
so he'd pass, and just didn't find any. I get the impression if it's close,
they'll look harder. But if you're not close, an extra point or two found
probably won't help. I don't think re-scoring helps very many people. What
I've said before is; if you think there's more than one way to do a problem,
with both ways meeting the requirements, ask the proctor which way they're
looking for.
