Also, what do we think about June 2021 – will these exams also be remote or in-centre ? Looking at Step 3 of the roadmap in the UK, the week of exams still ‘Indoors, the Rule of 6 or 2 households will apply’ and ‘until this point, people should continue to keep their distance from anyone not in their household or support bubble.’
Will this apply to exam halls ?
Yes, it looks like June is the only option – I really wish they would take into consideration how hard we all work, and how exhausting it all is. More sympathy and better solutions would have been great (i.e. another go next week)
I am so upset, the same thing happened to me – after 45 minutes in the queue, the greeter said they could not see me in the camera (even though I could see myself in the systems test and on the screen before the exam). The chat window kept closing too, and it was more than difficult to contact ACCA over the phone i tried 14 times before I got through. Finally the greeters put me through to techsupport, and after running through the checks, firewall etc – he decided to revoke my exam as we had spent 2+ hours trying to resolve the camera issue. ACCA has said the only option is to withdraw and do it in June. I am sitting SRB on Thursday, hopefully an entirely new laptop will help, but if I pass the systems test like I did on the current laptop and it breaks on the day, what can I do ? this is so frustrating and exhausting. If I had passed this would have been my last 2 exams ! But now another 3 months of study to keep up what I have done. Why I could not join a later remote session I do not know, and why they do not offer advanced papers in week 2 I also do not know. Overall – extremely upset !
