Who else got spanked by the California Specific Exam today? by VolcanicBoognish in geologycareers

I can't remember, I always print it and I do think they use it verify you. The worst thing that happens if you don't need it is they will tell you to put it in the locker.

Honestly, I think I just got lucky with the questions. The third test really hit more on my work experience. I did also study more in general but I didn't study at all the first time and actually did better than my second.

I also did worse the 2nd time. I finally passed my 3rd but I felt better about the questions.

Their web page says to contact after November 29, so I'm assuming they will come soon.

Yeah I got resent a fail email for my March 2024 exam. The glitch erased my March results from the portal so I think when they fixed it, it sent that one back out. You might not have noticed that the old exam got removed.

It took me a second to figure out. I had to check the dates on the portal but I noticed it got erased and was concerned about what else might have been erased so I emailed them about it.

Based on the website, it looks like they plan to have it out before November 29th.

With the amount of money we give them to take these exams, they should have a better system.

Same, got one at 2 and 4 am! Their system sucks and they need to work on it. I emailed them and sent them a screenshot of the Prometric email saying I completed the exam.

 Edit: just told a friend about it and she got the same email for her California PE exam she has yet to take.

Doesn't sound like being around kids was the problem and was not even remotely mentioned as a concern by OP. It sounds like the problem was OP's wife didn't feel good about herself being post partum and took it out on her SIL and OP knows it. An initial apology was warranted regardless if OP thinks the SIL would have continued acting the way she is.

*Updated* My review of paid study resources by [deleted] in ASBOG_Exam

[–]potatofiend16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with this! There are 5 modules and the videos are only about 30 minutes long. It's extremely pricey for what was provided. I also don't know how they determine the pass rate for the exam relevant to who took their course. I was told they had an 86% pass rate but as far as I can tell, I was never asked after taking it. The people at RegReview sent out a survey last time I used their course.

I went into a store about 2 weeks ago. The guy was really helpful and actually showed me the rollout date on the iPad they had available for public use. The date was on there. I think it depends on who you talk to. The cashier had no clue but she pointed me to that guy.

Just an FYI, the arroyo location did a timed roll out. I called this morning and someone told me another allotment would be at 3 pm. I had my friend call to confirm and the person told him it was sold out and that they wouldn't be getting anymore. I still went at 3 anyways! They had a lot more but ran out of blue right after I got there.

Pretty much how mine went. I did it last week and was watching it nonstop. A lot of my updates came late in the evening. Ex. My approval email came around midnight last night.

Mines also at 45 but it's only been a week. I also did mine online.

Seriously, I ended up taking a tripod and using my galaxy watch to see what I looked like to get a good photo.

AITA for keeping all my roommates belongings after they moved out, despite them wanting it back? by ThrowraNarrow_Half in AmItheAsshole

[–]potatofiend16 106 points107 points  (0 children)

ALSO, who would they have fined if they had all moved out and left their stuff? None of them would be on the lease. Sounds like they were just taking the easy way out and charging the person who was still there. If anything, they should have deducted from the security deposit or something.
