Grrrr!
Just a little rant. :mad:
I went to my local university to take DSST Drug and Alcohol Abuse and it never happened. I was nervous, but I felt I knew the IC very well and was ready to take it. Unfortunately, they had a new proctor that couldn't figure out how to log me in. My first clue was the cheat sheet she was using. Then she didn't ask me which college to send the score to (she gave me a blank look when I asked to send it to Excelsior, code 9370). She sent me into the computer lab twice, but the screens were set up for completely different tests, not even close to DSST. I even tried logging into them, thinking it was a new system, and of course they didn't have any of my information. She insisted that I must have forgotten my ID and password and gets another girl to help her, but neither can figure out the problem. They tried to create a new user name for me and that failed. This goes on for 45 minutes and then she finally tells me there is nothing she can do for me. She again insisted that I forgot my ID and password, so I left. I was already tired from working all day and was only getting more tense from the situation anyway. I wondered if maybe I really had forgotten my password and ID in my cramming haste.
I got home and went to the DSST site to figure out what went wrong. It turns out that of my info was correct! I logged right in, no problems. The proctor had no clue what she was doing.
So! If anyone else gets a clueless proctor that tries to log you into the wrong site, give them this address:
Prometric Online Testing
Maybe I wasn't meant to take the test today for some reason. It's probably a good thing, since she didn't get a chance to screw up sending my score as well! At any rate, the other proctor should be back Monday, so Monday it will be.
