Hi all
Sitting first CBE exam on Wednesday and it's a "Session CBE".
My docket says to arrive 1 full hour before exam start time, which means 8am at a location the other side of town for me.
Just wondering has anyone experience with adherence to this arriving an hour before exam? I understand for CBE they will have to assign us computers, etc. But I can't help but think a full hour is far excessive. Any idea if arriving only 30-40 mins before exam would cause any issue?
Plus, can't think of anything worse for exam stress than having to sit in a room for a whole hour before the test begins!

General ACCACBE arrival times
If it's your first CBE, 40 minutes - 1 hour earlier would be a better choice, since they need to check everyone's ID in front of computer and this takes about 1.5-2 minutes to proceed, if your exam hall have 30 candidates sitting at the same time, it will need about 1 hour, so this is trying to ensure everyone are sitting in the hall, and start exam at the right time.
Do note that in my exam for F5/PM, there is special request that once your enter the hall and be allocated to the pointed seat, DO NOT touch mouse or keyboard unless the supervisor told you to, because the paper is delivering, and if you touched, it might cancel your exam.
