Is there any precedent for the College Board acknowledging complaints/adjusting grading or in general changing anything on an AP exam after it is given because of teacher complaints? This is my first year teaching the course so I was wondering if it had ever happened in the past. I think we are all hoping and praying that grading will be a little lenient this year for MANY reasons! If nothing else it gives us some things to prepare for next year!

My recollection is that here was a problem a few years ago with there not being enough time for the students to respond to one or two questions and the College Board decided to not count one or two of the questions.

That SHOULD not have happened!  Too much money, time, and effort is expanded on that test.

There is a negative domino effect on the psyche of the students when such errors occurs!

Imagine outcome of the raid on Ben Laden if Seal Team 6 had taken to friendly fire casualties in the middle of the operation?

By the way, is any one up for "une corme"?
