Hi All

I am sorry to sound so geriatric but is anyone else nostalgic for the good 
old Pre Module exams when we native speakers and experienced non native 
speaker teachers all agreed as to what the correct answers to the exams 
were? We used to sit around in a group while the kids were writing and 
prepare the answer sheets.

Today we run around crazily checking that all is okay with the E module 
listening (which it isn't!) and barely have time to see the paper.And when 
we do ,we see that there are discrepancies and arguments among teachers as 
to which answers are acceptable!

In the cloze and the rewrites there was no such problem. WE had a body of 
material to teach.We knew what grammar topics would appear in the 
rewrites,and what kind of questions to prepare our students for in the 5 
point literature questions. Am I just too old or is the NBA really more 
chaotic and less of a language test and more of an intelligence test?
