<p>First, the proctor didn't shut the door for the first 3 sections, so we heard everyone walking down the hall. And even when she closed it, she left it open a jar (I guess so we could still hear the people talking in the hall).</p>
<p>Second, although it didn't affect test-taking, there was a freaking US Navy recruitment poster on the wall. I mean, recruiting for the navy in classrooms?? I was surprised I wasn't drafted walking out of the building.</p>
<p>Third, the people were annoying. I had figured that even though I was taking it at a notoriously bad High School, that the test-takers would be smart, diligent private school kids. Wrong. Every section, it took them a full 30 seconds to shut the freak up, and during breaks, rather than hearing "this is hard," "this is easy," or "I hope I get above 2100," I heard "pfft, why 'm'I even hea', I don' know the answe's t'hese queshi'ns. le's jus' leave righ' now." Three kids even came a minute late back from break, and instead of running to their tests, just strutted in, talking.</p>
<p>Forth, the proctor cut one section like 1:30 short (I was timing). Luckily, I had already finished the section (it was CR), but I wouldn't liked the time to finish looking over the questions I was iffy about. . . .</p>
<p>Mine was good. This was the proctors first time, so she was very strict. We got our full time. The door was open for the essay, so when she called time on that I asked if we could close it, which we did. There were only 15 in my room (last name starts w/ a "W") so it was pretty quite throughout. The kid in front of me had ADD or something, he tapped his feet through the whole thing....</p>
<p>i agree, first off, my test location was changed, and I like the dumb person I am, only checked last night, and had to make last minute arrangements to go to the provisional testing site. Also the air conditioning was broken, and it was hot as balls in the room ha. </p>
<p>I had alot of obnoxious kids in my class(ie people bragging about 1400's[overall] on their SAT). I hope it didn't rub off on me lol.</p>
<p>Plus I had a little cold and had my pencil in one hand and a kleenex in the other, it was a great experience, haha.</p>
<p>There was this really annoying girl in the back roll (right behind my back) who kept eating chocolate during the SECTIONS. The chocolate wrapping was noisy enough to distract not just me but the others in the room, too. The proctor didn't do anything.</p>
<p>Mine wasn't too bad. The proctor was nice. Except during the essay she came up to me (in the middle) and asked me why I was using a mechanical pencil (it was number 2). It totally ruined my concentration</p>
<p>i had a huge! testing site. a lot of kids i swear. overall, a little cramp. every seat in the class was filled. my proctor was cool. although, i think she was leaving out a minute or so in our time on each section :-/</p>
<p>The waterfall noise effects were soothing but the frogs and whatever else was stored in there was killing me! I would ignore it but every twenty minutes or so that's all i would here it was like being in the Rainforest Cafe or whatever.</p>
<p>My proctor was......different. I don't think he kept the best time and he didn't read the directions. I was not bothered by it becasue it was my third time taking it. I felt like we got about three minutes extra for each section but I dont know. I only had time to go back and check my answers once. It was the first time I didnt take the test at my highschool but I actually liked it better.</p>
