  • Using discretion when evaluating ambiguous responses.
  • Calculating total marks for each section and then summing these to arrive at a final score.

  • Noting students' submissions and capturing all final grades.
  • Returning marked scripts to agreed-upon venues for subsequent collection by our Moderators.
  • Reporting errors and omissions that you detect in the memorandums.

  • Fair, meticulous, and swift approach to assessment.
