Afterthe proctors collected our exams, I had a look at the passport of the gurl near me trying to figure out her nationality…It seems she noticed this and directly flipped it over so that i dont look at her passport COVER WHY THE HELL R U HIDING YR NATIONALITY … R u ashamed, for example ? some girls r just weird !!
lol… she’s afraid tat u go and look for her based on the address… Agree… Some girls are just weird…
There wasnt even an address…I was just looking at the cover page where the’s only two things: Logo + country name ! and maybe the word “Passport” !!
A guy in front of me was the target of pigeon poop which spoilt his paper… the proctors were unable to catch the pigeon so he was asked to sit on another table… unfortunately he was not given any extra time for his troubles!
I thought it was opened… 
Probably not so proud of her nationality… lol hill2drill, how did the pigeon got in and fly around in the hall? Probably that guy can go and strike a lottery for the luck. Over my place, saw this guy printed the exam ticket using an used paper (with presentation slides behind the paper). I was thinking, "the guy seriously din read the first rule stated on the ticket… what’s more a level 2 candidate who didn’t know that it’s supposed to be printed on a clean and unused paper… " Pity that guy coz the proctor told him that this is gonna be reported to the CFAI.

There was a bro-ski at my test center in a popped pink collar who showed up five minutes into the morning session, tests for 45 minutes then hands his exam to the proctor. The proctor, thinking this fellow is going to the restroom, offers to hold the booklet for him. The kid says loudly “I’m good brahhhhhhhh”, pats the proctor on the back, and leaves never to return.

Trust me it is not a Deja vu. It is the fact, if you end up with the same result, do not skip a year and none of you changes centers, you gonna see each again and again and again. It is some kind of system glitch which they do not bother to fix. Once you register for your very first CFA exam, your sitting lineup is fixed for the rest of your CFA examinations.

The halls were air-conditioned and enclosed, I guess the pigeon got in through the vent or something! The proctors just helplessly saw the pigeon flying around the hall and probably wished they could catch it, but I guess they gave up as it was impossible… the roof was over 20 meters high! In the PM session the same guy’s desk fell on his lap for some wierd reason! Talk about exam troubles!
2 tables across I saw the same guy I sat with when I gave L2 with last year Funnily enough, it was at a different city, so we both changed to the same city this year
I’m in for it too…the proctor at my location kept checking my Id again and again and after half an hour came to me and asked…hey Calculator cover is not allowed inside. I too replied go and check CFA policies about the calculator first and then we’ll talk…
I think they sit people according to their candidacy number, so it’s not real surprise that you’d be sitting close to the same people you had been sitting close to previously.

I sat next to the same person last for L2 as I did this year. Coincidence? Me thinks not.

I think it is yeah. I first registered for the program at the same time as a work colleague of mine, we’ve been sitting in adjacent seats for for each exam since then.

It’s based on your candidate number. The girl beside me had a candidate number within 100 of mine.
I have a story but it is not really funny. I went to use the restroom about half way through the morning. (Drank a little to much coffee). Went to the bathroom and the proctor comes out as I am walking towards it and gives me a strange look. He didn’t say anything so I continued in and see a homeless man bleeding from his head all over the floor, sinks, and especially himself (a lot of blood!). I quickly did my business and got the hell out there as the same proctor gave me a look like “what the hell is going on!” By the time I got back to my room I heard all the sirens coming down the road, I really wanted to tell everyone in the classroom, but decided that would probably not be my best plan of action. That bathroom was closed for the rest of the day. It frazzled me a bit as I got back to my chair…If I fail, I blame it one that…haha
