STDRM Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 Yes. I reported technical issues for two stations and was told that they would be excluded because the interviewers were not able to assess my performance. Darce 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're excluding a station I would have done very well in so I'm quite disappointed STDRM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether or not they thought that they were able to adequately assess your performance. I have a similar station which UBC decided to remove, and another where I've been give an option.

There were other stations where I felt that I was not given adequate time to answer the questions but it was like 3-4 different questions and I lost anywhere from 30seconds to 1min. I wasn't sure if that was reportable and tbh I couldn't remember which questions. They told us no paper/pencils should be present so I couldn't note down any technical difficulties until after the fact. I hope this doesn't hold me back, I prepped so hard for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
physfisher Posted February 20, 2021 Report Share Posted February 20, 2021 I suspect that UBC is removing stations where candidates had less than 7 minute answering time with proper audio/video. I could be wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I was “reassured” they collected enough information for assessment. Were you given the option to remove the stations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m so sorry they didn’t give you the option to make your own choice but maybe it’s because you rocked that station and it’s better for you to keep it in? Did they say they’d put a note on your file atleast? I’m so curious to know how they’re making these decisions but I guess we’ll never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
