<p>Uhm, so I didn't take the AP Bio test today, but a bunch of my friends did. I'm just curious as to if anyone else has experienced a similar situation or knows someone who has and can shed some light on CB's policy for this type of thing. </p>
<p>So, my school has this really crappy electrical system, since it was built in, like, 1967. Every once in a while, the power will go out for some dumb reason like a kamikaze squirrel jumping into the electrical box... but today it went out because it was storming really, really hard. It was already out by the time we got to school, but the teachers decided to give the test anyways (there were emergency lights and a window in the testing room.) Those circumstances were already pretty questionable, but later, toward the end of the test, the fire alarm went off unexpectedly. (It turns out that the generator had freaked out when BGE was working on giving us power.) The testing room was evacuated. I heard from my friends later that they were about two minutes into the free response at the time and that when they got back, the teacher gave them about three minutes to settle down. The teacher reported all of these circumstances. </p>
<p>This type of thing has to be fairly common, right? I dunno, I'm just used to testing situations where the proctors are like "THIS ALL HAS TO BE DONE PERFECTLY RIGHT OR EVERYTHING WILL BE INVALIDATED LFKSJDLFJDSF," so I'm kinda worried. Anyone have any insight?</p>
