HI Tim,
If you didn't have any discontiguous subnets and you don't want any control on the summarization I guess auto-summary would work. I do think that that would cost you valuable points as you aren't really "configuring your router" - just leaving it at it's default behaviour.

Subject: auto-summary vs manual summarization
Hi guys,
Assume you're running a distance vector IGP and you're instructed to
configure your router to advertise the minimum number of networks to the
backbone rtr for it to have full reachability.
Which is better and why?
Using auto-summary or manually configuring summary routes.
I would think the manually configured summary routes would be better because
it can be much more specific and therefore prevent the inclusion of some
subnets which might be wrongly included in an auto summarization.
Also, do you think that if the less preferred method were used, would points
be lost in the lab?
TIA, Tim
