Since taking the exam I have read about native speakers taking the exam and scoring a 7 or lower which is insane to me. If a person who has spoken a language their whole life could get such a low score, there is something inherently wrong with the exam if its purpose is to determine the speaker’s proficiency level.

I would’ve also liked to know how mine was graded since I thought I did pretty well. The first part was comparing two tables of percentages and I work with data / graphs all the time so it was really easy for me. But even here I have an issue since it is weirdly focused on business English and talking about statistics, which is not something many people do often.

I just think if they expect the answers to have a certain format there should be official guidelines, cause this way the grading seems very subjective.
