About an hour in to the pm session, a proctor walked over to my desk and picked up and looked at my passport. Does this mean they want to write me up to pcp or am I freaking out for no reason?
i definitely didn’t do anything wrong, but looking back I think maybe I stared I to space when thinking over things and me and the tables around me were certainly chatty before and between sessions but we weren’t violating anything information wise.,
So i am hoping that a passport check is just routine procedure?
They check your passport throughout the exam. They checked mine during level 1 and 2 multiple times, they tell you they are going to. You shouldn’t have anything to worry about.
I caught one proctor staring at me in the PM session, was kind of unsettling, but I just gave her a nasty look, and went back to work on the exam. I think as long as you keep your eye and head down, they’re not going to do anything.
I believe they are supposed to / told to check our passports frequently (for whatever reason). Same thing happened to me… they look at my picture, I smile
I had the proctor come and check my passport, and for a second I thought, “Wait a minute…”. But then I saw her move on to the next desk and do the same. And I went back to writing…
Our proctors checked our passports at the END of the PM session and COUNTED the pages in the test booklet, had never seen that before, for a minute thought I was getting a PCP inquiry.
Ya don’t worry about it. In the AM session they checked my passport in the first ten minutes. In the afternoon, it was after an hour. It’s more security than the airport.
One proctor got very curious about my name change during my L1 exam. He basically stole 10 minutes of my time with questions, and repetitive checks. But I passed that test)))
i think they are checking to make sure you write the correct candidate code on your answer sheet and then reconciling it with your ticket, and then your passport so that two candidates cant switch.
