Hey, I'm planning to take the February FS exam. I know two of the Critical-Need languages (Persian, Arabic) and I am confident that I can achieve a passing score in either one.

Given that I can only pick one language to be tested in and that I'm guaranteed to go to a country where Persian is spoken for my first round if I pass, am I setting myself up to be sent to Afghanistan (or Tajikistan) for my very first job?

Passed the multiple choice, but got a 4 on the essay. Would the regrade generally be able to improve the essay score?

Does anyone know who to actually contact in order to get a regrade for the FSOT essay? Googling turns up fsot@act.gov , but the address does not work.
