[QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 3195671, member: 71723"]I have never attended a Summer Seminar, but I flew early to an ANA convention site to take the grading course there. Why? Because I could not learn grading to my personal satisfaction ANY OTHER WAY, and I wanted skills I could not adequately acquire any other way. Summer Seminar is scheduled at incompatible times for my profession these last ten years, but if and when that changes, I WILL be a nearly annual fixture there. Before I took a formal classroom course, I was UTTERLY HORRIBLE at guessing the grades my TPG submissions would get. Surprises all over the sheet - both directions. Since I took the course, the LARGEST surprise I have gotten is 1 point, ... UP! Exception: there was one Buffnick I sent in, a 1920 Philly, which I guessed as maybe a 55, and it came back a 62, but that's a grading standard change I hadn't read of before that.[/QUOTE]
