<p>That is soooo true. I noticed that even for the AP essay tests, kids are not supposed to be "downgraded" if they get a fact wrong in their essays. The graders are supposed to "over-look" the error and just see if the kid "supported" the "fact" with strong sounding words. (I think this is because they can't expect the graders to be that knowledgeable about every essay question.)</p>
