Dr.Doom Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 For those that experienced technical difficulties which prevented them from COMPLETING CASPer (myself included), what solutions were given by tech support? Did they mention anything about a re-write? Perhaps people who had a similar issue last year could shed some light on what situations require a re-write and when this would take place? Thank you!

missmathematics Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Somewhere on the website it says that for problems like those, there will be info given for some sort of a different test... Well at least I hope they will. They should, it would only be fair because these matters are out of our control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year, as a backup to casper they looked at your answers to a whole bunch of questions that you filled out about yourself over omsas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comeon Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 A friend of mine had this issue. He called tech support during the test (you were supposed to call during or before the test for any of your problems to be noted). He was only able to answer 8 questions - he was told that the incomplete questions will not be included in the marking, and the rest will be worth more. You should call to make sure you will be OK.

drahm Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Regarding my technical difficulties, McMaster emailed me on Friday saying that they had enough answers to judge my test (without considering any sections incomplete). Apparently they ask more questions than they need answers to, in anticipation of such problems, and so they are able to evaluate a complete test in my case, despite my technical difficulties hampering my answers for two sections.
