Hello everyone, I have a tricky experience with my last official test which I would like to get your thoughts
Both of my pen, which I was given and was working fine at the beginning, went out of ink approaching the last 6 minute of one of my exam. Knowing there is only five minutes left, I had not much room timewise to raise my hand and let the administrator know that I needed new pens.
This had a major effect on my test score because I was taking the quant session and for majority of the quant questions, you just cannot function without being able to write things down or do the calculation or manipulation on paper. I had about 4 questions guessing. I did end up with a quant score 3 or 4 points lower than what I was expecting.
For situation like this which is clearly out of my control (as both pen were working fine at the beginning of the test), I feel like I wanted to ask for a refund to my test or a second chance at least. What are your thoughts?
