  • 객관적으로 평가되다: to be objectively evaluated.

When using '평가되다,' the focus is on the subject receiving the evaluation rather than performing it. Avoid confusing it with '평가하다,' which means 'to evaluate' actively. Learners often mix these two forms; remember that '평가되다' is passive and emphasizes the evaluation received.
