Hi. I m seeking your guidance w.r.t. investigation put up on me. I gave June 2015 CFA L1 exams. On first week of July, I received a letter from CFA Institute for violation during the exam day. After the time was up, I was erasing a slightly outside oval mark of my seat number and then darkening it further. The proctor filed a violation report as: ‘He was erasing some oval and then marking the oval. He had to be called told to put his pencil down’.
Now I have to provide a reply to this letter. I do not want my result to be invalidated. Please provide guidance so that I can provide an appropriate reply to CFA Institute.I have studied hard for this exam and I do not want my results to be invalidated. Following points are in my favour:
1. Proctor 2 has not verified or supported the claim of Proctor 1.
2. A tube light in the exam room was flickering in the morning and afternoon session. It was going on and off every 2 seconds. The resulted in distraction and wasted about 15 minutes of my exam time.
3. A field in the violation report ‘Identify all the persons who observed the candidate’s conduct’ has been left blank by the proctor.
4.The violation report is drwan up in pencil instead of a pen.A document made up in pencil can be ereased or edited by anybody.
5. The proctor has used the word ‘some oval’ instead of specifically identifying whether I was darkening the answer or the seat number.
Please help. I want to draft an appropriate response so that my results don’t get void. Thanks.

I feel like this one is on him - bad moves
 
I got this message, too. Glad I wasn’t the only one. I wonder how many he sent out.
 
Guys he simply is worried, I guess stipulating the facts is the way to go as this is the only way to go about it.
 
I got two.. Its out of eagerness and he is simply worried..
Unfortunately, there is no way to help him now…
 
I will say this: I don’t think he should make any arguments about a flickering light costing him fifteen minutes.
I think that sounds like he is grasping at straws and was too easily distracted (everyone else would have to deal with the light).
Also, number 5 seems pretty weak. Sure, the proctor didn’t say which oval he was marking, but that doesn’t matter. The rules clearly say do not mark any oval after time. I would imagine that if you need to fill in your name (or something similar), you would call a proctor over and ask for permission as one or two of them watch you fill in your name and only your name.
What do you all think? Maybe he’ll take a peek at this thread…
 
Poor guy.
It tend to side against CFAI on these sort of things but these were foolish.
