Bar course grading

I, as well as many other people have noticed that the utterly crushing grades handed out by Flemings, Micromash and Barbri all seem to have the same thing in common; no matter how awesome it is, you aren't going to get a 70, unless you literally spend hours on it. My friend Brian sent in re-worded model answer and they gave it a 65.

I understand that fear is a great motivator but honestly I think a fair appraisal is better teaching.
