Incident in ACT testing center? Was this my fault?

<p>Hello CC
I took the ACT today and it was pretty easy (as in compared to the last one I took). During our break I was talking to someone and said to them the they should finish their tests since no points are deducted for wrong answers. I said that in the last minute of each test they should bubble in all the rest. The person said "oh ok thanks." Next thing I know they get booted from the test for going back and bubbling in past answers. After the test my friend got a text message saying "I got booted, I shouldn't have listened to Justin(my name)."
Obviously, I was referring to filling the rest for the upcoming sections, but this person blamed ME for her getting dismissed.</p>

<p>Is this my fault?? Will ACT void my scores if they find out this person thinks I told them to cheat? IF so, can I appeal it?</p>

<p>I'm freaking out</p>

<p>I doubt it, there is no concrete evidence and never will be, it would most likely be seen as someone who is disgruntled for getting booted</p>

<p>They may have misunderstood you or you may have misspoken, but either way the kid who got booted should have know darn well that they could not got back and monkey around with the completed sections.</p>

<p>Good proctor. Most people don’t get caught doing something like that.</p>

<p>Really? That’s doesn’t even sound as bad as the six people who got kicked out off my testing center for bringing 89s. It CLEARLY says all over the ACT website that that’s the #1 thing not to bring on test day. -___-</p>

<p>You are in no danger and are not at fault.</p>

<p>Not your fault, he didn’t have to listen to you.</p>

<p>Good? I don’t think so - assh*le.</p>

<p>^ How does that make him an *******? It says in the directions on testday not to bubble in answers from past tests. That DOES make him a good proctor because he was doing his job . . .</p>

<p>Elbeen: My proctor didn’t even check calculators. He just asked. Then again, I live in Indiana. I don’t think most people are at a high enough level to even use the 89 in their normal math classes. I have one actually due to being in Multivariable Calculus and I always need to remember not to bring it.</p>

<p>I’m not sure why it is banned. It isn’t particularly more useful than the lower versions. I mean, you can still store whatever formulas you want in those calculators.</p>

<p>Wow that’s crazy! It does differ from proctor to proctor. My last proctor was like yours, but this time, the guy walked around the enttttirrreeee rooom hahaa it took forever because we had a large group. And I think it can give you answers, that’s why it’s banned. I’ve never used it before. =0</p>

<p>This is just one of those unfortunate misunderstandings. Either way, the proctor most likely made it very clear that bubbling in answers from previous tests is not allowed; you are in no way responsible.</p>
