Totally agree. Spoke at length with Peter regarding this and he defended his position tooth and nail like his life depended on it.

Yes they have increased from about a 2 week turnaround to about 1 month inclusive. Still about a year faster than the #2 and #3 companies!

I could care less if they accept take home submission I want them to grade on site and on site only, that's it. Is that to much to ask from a grading company?
