NYC teachers -- anyone else scoring the ELA?

It's GREAT money but there's gotta be a better way.

I am, but I took off last Saturday and this Saturday. I needed the break. We started the 22nd. Right now we are grading 6th grade, so we will be finished soon.

Oh wow! I do a Saturday college class and that stinks, but it's only 4 hours.

Just curious, it is because I am ignorant: It takes us 2 days, tops, to grade all the math regents and we have almost 4,000 students.
Why does it take weeks to grade the ELAs?
