I'd prefer it if the test were essay. not because it would be harder,
but because for me at least, it would be easier. I liked them in school,
I still like them.



You are assuming that the volunteer examiners are capable of
evaluating something other than multiple choice.


And how! That is the glaring problem with essay type questions. The
grader must understand the answer, and they must be able to understand
the answers that the student makes. Any less, and you have a big argument.
