What are the mock exams, and who grades them?
Two graded practice sittings. Mock 1 lands in week two and is deliberately harder than the real exam. Mock 2 in week three is a parallel form of it, scored against your day-one baseline.
We grade both of them ourselves. Other programs leave the capstone self-graded, which means you find out how you're doing from the person with the most reason to be optimistic. Here somebody else grades you, and both sittings are debriefed, so you walk into the exam knowing where you stand.
