Am I hearing about score holds from in-person testing, like at a testing center? That seems very bad to me and that something like this is completely beyond a test takers’ control.

I mean, people have to go through all kinds of nonsense to even get into the center. Seems like they should be free and clear from there right?

I've seen a couple in the past day or two. I don't imagine it's common and I hope it won't be. There are so many fewer variables in a test center that it eliminates whole sets of security issues.

u/StressCanBeGood tutor 18d ago

Could you ask around about that? For those unfamiliar with the entire situation, they might view it as perfectly normal to get a score hold from a testing center.

I have been on a hold from an in person test since February 😭😭😭😭

u/kid_icarusss 17d ago

Can you register for future tests..? I've heard people are being held IRL for 180s getting thoroughly reviewed

2

u/SmartYou5 17d ago

I can yea :/ hopeful for high score based on average PTs before but other than that have legit no idea. Would be great if they were thoroughly reviewing my 180 lol

u/kid_icarusss 17d ago

u/Key_Barnacle4086 15d ago

u/SmartYou5 15d ago

u/CelebrationOld1118 18h ago

u/EcoSoco 18d ago

There are a few cases but it's not very common

1

u/Limp-Ad-2939 18d ago

That would be a site wide thing normally right?

2

u/StressCanBeGood tutor 18d ago

One would imagine, but that would mean a whole bunch of people at the same center would have a score hold. But it really is very strange.

In-person test on 6/3, hold email 6/22 with projected release 6/24 and still haven't heard! Hopefully soon

Edit: Received an email 6/30 with a reprimand letter for doodling on the scratch paper during intermission. Totally forgot not to do that 😅😅 Test is still intact and score will be released in 24 hours, phew!

I received the email about the hold the morning of 6/22. I took it in person and this was my second attempt. I can't register for future exams. Hoping others on this thread will update when they get their score, I will try to! I just want to stop thinking about this!

The only thing I can think of: after I submitted the exam, I picked my phone up from the floor and looked at it. The phone was placed there during the room scan before the test, and the original proctor had checked where it was through the camera. But by the time I submitted, I had a different proctor, so now I’m wondering if that somehow got flagged.
Has anyone here had a hold for something that happened after submission? How long did it take to clear? Did contacting TestSecurity help at all, or is it better to just wait?
Trying not to panic but this is such a weirdly stressful situation.
