<p>I took the SAT today and our proctor allowed someone to microwave a burrito right before the test started (in the testing room!). Also the same boy ate a granola bar during the test.</p>
<p>You’re jealous because you didn’t have a burrito. That is what this is all about, isn’t it?</p>
<p>Seconded, it’s not like he was cheating with a burrito, just hungry, it’s pretty fair, he just had a a snack. And this was before the test started too, so not really interrupting, let it be. And eating is allowed during breaks, I usually down a kool-aid and a bag of lays.</p>
<p>Stop being so butthurt like seriously.</p>
<p>Eating during the test is definitely not allowed, and a bit disruptive. Still, that’s not a very good reason to report to Collegeboard. I personally wouldn’t if it didn’t affect me, but that’s pretty subjective.</p>
<p>Yup, that’s annoying. But I don’t think college board will care unless he hid answers in the burrito or the granola bar.</p>
<p>All of the triangle rules in the black beans and rice? Probably.</p>
<p>You seem like the kind of guy everyone hates.</p>
<p>As a diabetic i had an ‘episode’ today</p>
<p>Why? Because I only ate one cereal bar during a 5 hour period of the test+traveling. I did not eat, and my sugar level dropped during the test. I’m experiencing tremendous foot pain and bad numbness. I’m recovering well right now, but if I had packed a lot more food, I currently wouldn’t be having the problems I had today. </p>
<p>So by all means, let the damn ■■■■■■■ eat whatever the hell he freaking wants. I sure as hell would love to do that.</p>
<p>^ I second Neverend</p>
<p>unless the person was being obnoxious with the food, or you were allergic to the food that whoever microwaved, it’s best not to make a big deal out of it.</p>
<p>No one cares about the eating in the room - for god’s sake it’s just food! It’s not like he used the burrito to cheat or anything. I would in fact report to Collegeboard to sanction the use of microwave in the testing room - then everyone could bring better snacks in!</p>
<p>In the testing room?! How dare he permit a microwaving to occur right before anything actually significant occurs. The nerve! The completely convenient timing! This man should never be allowed to proctor an exam again.</p>
<p>I wish I had such a lenient proctor. I wasn’t allowed to use my mechanical pencils… I had to write an essay with a wooden pencil. A wooden pencil! Can you believe that? It’s outrageous! I switched pencils every few minutes to make sure that I had a sharp tip…</p>
<p>
Wait…if you knew you were diabetic…why did you only eat one thing, though?</p>
<p>Could be relevant if the burrito stunk up the room, then it could be a disruption. </p>
<p>I doubt you will every obtain satisfaction from CB though.</p>
<p>My proctor only gave us 22 minutes for the writing. I know that doesn’t sound like a lot but it is when you’re writing an essay. He wrote starting time at 9:00 but it took him 5 minutes to pass out the booklets. We brought it to his attention and he was like, “oh so 2 extra minutes?” No.</p>
