Hi,
I’m due to sit my OCS in May, just wondering what everyone’s views are on Case Study online at home and if anyone has sat one at home and one in a test centre and any pros/cons? I’ve passed E1/F1/F1 at home over the last 9 months or so and planning to sit OCS at home in May just worried about connection issues at home for a 3 hour exam as never sat an exam this long at home.
Hi there,
I am in the same situation. But I’m hoping the Exam Centres will be open again by May.Also, my Online course with Kaplan won’t start until the end of March. Is there anything I should/could be doing in the meantime?
Thanks! 🙂
HI. I had my OCS at home. Not by choice- it was a lockdown, so the only option avialable.
You can never really be 100% sure- I think I would rather have it in a test centre if I had a choice.
My exam was going ok until about 10 minutes before the end. My screen froze for about 2 seconds and the proctor’s window came up asking me if everything is ok. I said yes and he wanted me to move my laptop around to show what I have around me and on the table. At the end I was ok to continue. I lost like 2 minutes because of that and trust me- on OCS every minute counts. I don’t know if it was my laptop or connection. LAptop is quite new and I had it connected to the router via cable to avoid connection issues as much as possible.Considering transitioning from online to in-person OCS exams raises concerns about home connectivity for longer tests. Experience with IQ online tests can inform decision-making but warrants preparation for potential connectivity issues.
Hi guys! Which levels can one take exams for online? Though a little skeptical because I have never taken an online exam, and I don’t trust my internet and device, I am considering taking my P1 and operational level case study. Do I have to have completed all operational papers to register for the case study? I passed my E1 and F1 long before the introduction of case studies at every level!
Meanwhile, are the fees for paper based assessments different from online assessments?
Yes you have to pass all level for you to be able to book your OCS exam. Just an encouragement….i too have the same issue, passed my P1 a week ago. Now going for the august case study. I would recommend you go for the November OCS instead if you havent already sat for your P1 at this point.
FYI….o reke di question bank tsa kaplan/CIMA for like 15 pounds on the CIMA website. Di a thusa thaata….. Practice practice and practice some more is the only way you will pass 😉
