Anybody else frustrated with this?

I finally received my results this morning with the following graders' comments:
"The DMAC project should be more broad in nature rather that focusing on what reserve level is required."

This is what I get for hours of work and over 8 weeks of waiting? My paper focused on the conflicting needs of various stakeholders and why particular attention was being paid to yearend reserves. I was discussing the reserve level because that was the decision to be made.

I can't help feeling the graders were overwhelmed and didn't finish reading my paper.

That is about the response I got to my first one (basically your project is wrong).

Either the grader is being an idiot or communicating poorly. The notion that the required reserve level for a life insurance company is a narrow topic is beyond absurd.

Plus, some of the sample topics are clearly narrower and there is no stated requirement that the focus be broad.

Sorry man, you got hosed.

Poorly communicating the results of a communication project. A++.

Sorry you have to rework it, but it is nice to hear that someone is actually grading again.

Either the grader [of the communications module] is being an idiot or communicating poorly.
Ah, the irony!

Yeah, I was concerned over how long the grading was taking especially since I know someone who got her grade the same day she submitted. I was wondering if this was happening to anybody else. With the long wait times and the prompt comments, it almost seemed like graders aren't giving papers due diligence. "This one is too long so I'll say it's too narrow."
