I just had a chillingly realization this morning. Before I go into too much details, does anyone know anything about exam day violations? If proctors observe a possible violation or questionable behavior, do they write up the policy violation in front of you or after the exam without your knowledge?

Thanks
 
Yikes, I don't know....what did you do? Rub up against a proctor?
 
I wrote on my exam ticket before it was collected. I'm the world's biggest moron, I know. Now I'm on an emotional rollercoaster and riding it till end of July.
 
What exactly did you right - a formula or something?

Looking at that thread I don't think you should worry. If the proctors didn't file an official complaint then it is highly probable that your mistake would go unnoticed. In the worst case, I think, CFAI might demand an explanation and if they do most probably they wouldn't take a harsh decision.

The bottomline is don't worry about the incident.
 
lol - the exam reading was about to begin and i decided i needed to take a leak so i headed up the stairs to the bathroom - this fat broad starts yelling and runs over to tell me i couldnt go to the bathroom until the reading was finished - i told her she was @#$%&!ng ridiculous and walked away. .. too bad there's no section in ethics on being an overt dick to peons
 
I was asked to show my ID in the first 5 minutes during the morning half. I don't remember if I started writing on the exam ticket at this point. I thought it was standard procedure and didn't think twice about it until just now. Did this happen to anybody else?

Oh man I'm a real mess right now..
 
its a non issue man - extremely unlikely they're going to investigate something stupid like that, what did you write on your exam ticket? please dont say formulas. anyways, if they do f/u they'll contact you and investigate. no sweat
 
If they start a PCP investigation of you, they would need to have some evidence, e.g., the written-on exam ticket. For all practical purposes, if nobody said anything to you then, you are probably fine. Anyway, not allowing scratch paper is pretty silly rule. I guess it's to mimic conditions found at major IB's where they are having real trouble affording scratch paper and you need to learn to operate under those conditions.
 
I wrote the question number for which I guessed throughout entirety of the test to give myself an estimate at end; so just random numbers between 1-240. I really hope I'm just making this a much bigger deal than it is.
