This does not answer your question directly.
  When you scored wrong in a point, it's my understanding (needs to be verified) that the proctor in the lab will double check it and see why it's considered to be wrong.
  Human intervention is introduced on those points where you failed the script test, and the one doing the testing as far as I know is you proctor.
   
  Again, I might be wrong on this or this might had changed since the last time I took the test (back in 2003). If anyone could verify this at least this would give you of our friend a peace of mind.
   
  imo, sadly but quite true, luck is also a major factor in our everyday life.

  Excellent questions, James. I often wonder the same things.
Is it possible that a proctor in a foreign country is mistakedly failing
people because some task interpretations get lost in translation?
