If a student only submits a draft to the AP Board and did not click “Submit Final”, does the AP Board still grade the latest version of the draft they submitted?

That’s what I thought. I just had students saying that other teachers in other classes told them that they would grade the latest draft uploaded. Probably wishful thinking…
