<p>People getting kicked out for funny reasons, strange distractions, etc. Post your stories here so we can all have a laugh!</p>
<p>i'm allergic to standardized tests
runny nose for two sections, then it was gone
happened during the sat2's i've taken in the past too
except this time the guy in front of me and the guy on the left had the same thing but worse</p>
<p>must be caused by stress or anxiety or something? which is weird cause i was calm and apathetic and didn't rush at all. hmm</p>
<p>haha nice. i know this chick who accidentally went on to the next section without noticing and got her test cancelled. im sure there are funnier ones out there.</p>
<p>i had to pee 5 times during this test. I didn't even drink anything. </p>
<p>It wasn't even like the kind you can hold, i literally had to get up and go during the test.</p>
<p>Man oh man do I have one to tell. My SAT proctor was.. not to be mean.. but some random, completely incompetent guy. So we arrive outside at 8:15 and have to wait ages to get in. Finally when I get into the testing room we begin to start. It becomes apparent very quickly that he has absolutely no idea what he is doing. First he started acting like the whole test was only 25 minutes long, and that we would be able to leave after that, and he wasn't sure if we were signed up for other stuff but he was only doing the 25 minute part. Then we are supposed to start writing at 9, but we wait about 6 minutes and instead begin filling the bubble sheets in at 9. So we finally start the essay about 30 minutes late. Before we started he rambled on about some random things. Then about 10 minutes in he starts rambling very loudly about people that were not in the right seats. I don't even think they were there, but he keeps on blabbing and finally another proctor gets him to be quiet. So then he's like ok guys you'll get an extra 5 minutes to write. And when time is supposedly up he is at his desk reading the paper or something and forgets so we get another 4 or 5 minutes. The other proctor walks in and its obvious shes thinking what!??! to herself and he realizes and ends it immediately. So basically we end an hour later than everyone else.. Long day.</p>
<p>hm... well on the SAT IIs I took freshman year a kid in my room kept going on about the importance of drinking tea. He showed up calling out loudly "got ma TEA!" and then preached about how stellar tea-drinking was for the test-takers mind. He almost cried a couple minutes later when the proctor made him throw it out.</p>
<p>And then there was the kid I was sitting next to during the SATs I took this past October who told me matter-of-factly before the start of the exam "I got an 800 on my writing section last time so I'm going to sleep during the essay part." He proceeded to do exactly that and woke up midway through section 3.</p>
<p>When my friend took the SAT last year there was no clock in the room to keep track of the time... they had to use a microwave timer. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>a girl brought into two CDs players for the listening portion of the SATIIs... and lo and behold, both players broke. it sucked for her!!</p>
<p>i had intense diarrhea this morning and almost got there late. if thats not funny i dont know what is. its one of those ones that refuse to come out, and then just POURS out and your butt burns and tingles for the rest of the day. Also, twice a person sneezed and across the room this black girl said "gawd bless yah".</p>
<p>During the practice tests @ the PR I always would have to fart, and holding it in took so much goddamn energy and totally sapped my concentration. Plus I probably looked a little bit sketchy moving around to get into the right "holding in" position.</p>
<p>Luckily however this morning I randomly had to take a massive dump out of nowhere, thus eliminating any chance of the fart factor. I guess God was with me...</p>
<p>Seriously though, any improvement I get on the real thing from the practices must be attributed to not having to rip ass the whole time, we'll have to wait and see.</p>
<p>This kid at my school took the SAT yesterday for the 6th time. His score is high enough to get him into his top choice, but his dad is making him take it again and again. He's taking it in June again lol.</p>
<p>wow, I knew one kid who got signed up for 3 SATs by his parents and then proceeded to do well on the first test, making the other 2 unnecessary.</p>
<p>I had to pee like 10 times. I drank a small coffee and a water bottle beforehand and then I had a vitamin water during the break, next time I won't drink so much, lol.</p>
<p>During the SAT II I took yesterday (Chemistry)</p>
<p>Canon Rock ver. (by Jerry C) was going on my head after T/F/CE questions</p>
<p>I don't know if it helped me or doomed me. I just have to wait for the result...
maybe I got careless because of that music going on my head.. I was moving my body along with the music too...</p>
<p>I had my wallet in my back right pocket yesterday, so my ass cheeks were unbalanced, and i seriously started feeling SO much pain that i had to have one cheek hanging off the chair. im just bringing my ID alone next time</p>
<p>SAT I:
there was this kid in the testing room who thought he was some kind of genius. he finished section 2 and kept shouting at the proctor to let him go to the next section (there were still 10 minutes left for sec. 2), she didn't let him. Then he did the same after sec. 3, so she shouted at him and told him that if he opened his mouth again she'd kick him out.
He was quiet as a mouse for the rest of the test.</p>
<p>On saturday the kid in front of me has some serious gas problem. It started around section 2, and it just kept going onto the last section. The guy could not hold it in and every couple of minutes he would rip another one. I wanted to hit him on the back of his head and tell them to take some beano</p>
<p>On the contract thing or whatever
NOONE in the test room could write in cursive so the protcor spent 30 minutes showing us how to write everything in cursive lol</p>
<p>Then she allowed all my friends and I to sit next to each other during the test which made for a lot of laughs</p>
<p>In each section, it seems, at least one person got up to go to the bathroom. It was kind of funny really. </p>
<p>The guy that happened to be sitting in front of me, got up in the middle of section 2, cancelled his scores, and left. For no apparent reason.</p>
<p>While we were like in the middle of section 8 or so, we could hear these kids outside the school yelling "WE KNOW YOU CAN HEAR US SAT-TAKERS" and just generally being obnoxious. It was extremely annoying.</p>
