So I just got an email from NASB telling me about the new security measures that prometrics will start “enforcing” on October 15th.. all I can say is: “seriously people wearing camera eye glasses into the center is really a “thing”???”– and why can’t I seem to get one of these “pirated exams” that must be floating around from all of these eyewear, jewelry and hair accessory camera wielding geniuses …. ha ha ha (the one for BEC would be particularly great 🙂 )

and they ask me why I drink...

I think at the two Prometric centers I went to they only did the fingerprint for 2 fingers.

[mckan514w]

I have gotten the full five finger plus pull up and down and turn inside out everything on your body routine at all three that I have visited. Oh man I just want to be done with all of this…

I've gotten everything, except just two fingers instead of 5.

At my prometric center they let me take in a cough drop but I had to have it in my mouth or unwrap and place it on a napkin in front of the camera and my test cubicle.

i got the same email too. how come I didn't get this type of eyeglasses? man, I'm struggling with REG.

someone probably got busted.

Be glad ProMetric in not giving free “Colonoscopy”.

Took FAR today, was told my hair barrettes won't be allowed in next time (but were ok today because the rules don't kick in until October 16). Apparently bobby pins aren't allowed either. Not sure how else I'm going to keep my hair off my face. Hopefully I passed today and won't have to deal with this #%^* ever again.

oh wow! you guys are scaring me! Do get to keep our shoes on? Lol! I had always wished and even suggested that the University professors stop using test banks for their exams. They were too easy to obtain, we were required to show our work on each problem, so if you didn't know how to get the correct answer you still didn't get full credit.

@GitRDone2017 – I actually love the system for developing problems. It gives partial credit. I hated one professor I had for AUD in college. He was all about test banks and two kids in the raw in front of mine had the test banks out on exam day and always got a 100%. I hated it so much. And on top of that the people that actually studied and had incorrect answers according to test bank results would argue based on text book and professor could not get a straight answer. Worst teacher I ever had in my life.

LOL- naked- now that will be a scary day.. today they just two finger printed me which I thought was odd…

I was also told that my rubber band would not be allowed at my next exam and that they can provide one of those green stretchy office ones that tear your hair out for me if I request… good lord help us….

and they ask me why I drink...

Is easier to leave the country or enter it than to sit for the CPA exam!!

How was your exam @mckan?

I don't think any of my accounting professors used the test banks from the textbook we were studying from. The bad thing about that is sometimes you'd get exams that were a very different format from the textbook. The questions were worded in a different way and from a different angle. Kind of like the CPA exam, hahahahaha. I think the professor wrote some of the (non multiple choice) questions themselves and got the multiple choice questions from multiple sources, like from test banks from different textbooks.
