ETS uses both human raters and automated scoring methods to offer a complete and accurate picture of a test taker’s ability. While automated scoring models have advantages, they do not measure the effectiveness of the language response and the appropriateness of its content. Human raters are needed to attend to a wider variety of features, such as the quality of ideas and content as well as form.
