I sat for the ****-SCP exam on 12.03.2024. I took the exam in my home office, where I have taken a number of remote certification exams, all with rigorous processes to ensure integrity and honesty in the test-taking environment. I have never experienced the humiliation and absurdity of the Prometric proctor process. I ultimately re-connected at least 5 times, showing the backs of my ears, emptying trash pails, pulling trays of printers out to remove papers, disconnecting printer wires, and on and on for more than 1.5 hours. When I finally was able to enter the exam, I was thoroughly drained and totally distracted. I began answering the exam questions as quickly as I could. Although a while into the exam I would have wanted to take the 15-minute break which was available to me and my bladder was busting (tough on a 68-year old woman), I had been warned by the proctor, that taking a break would require a re-do of the security process. Going through that again was not an option. I sat until I completed the exam. I did not pass. That result can happen. I am not taking issue with the result. I am taking issue with the abominable conduct of the proctors, and their attitudes which demonstrate dreadful customer service. Moreover, that Prometric is the proctoring service for the ******* *** ***** ******** ************* goes against everything which **** and its CEO, ****** ******, profess to stand for in the profession, and I am a professional with nearly 50 years of experience as an executive. Shame on **** and Prometric.Review from JIAOBAI D

1. The examiner said that a third party appeared during my exam process and terminated my exam. I displayed the examination environment according to the requirements of the invigilator throughout the entire process. There were no third parties present in the small office of the examination room, and the door was locked and the camera did not leave the door. No third-party personnel entered, and I asked the invigilator without providing any evidence. 2. The office is fully monitored, and I can provide monitoring data and re record the office structure environment. It is impossible for a third party to enter the room. Requirement: Request evidence of the existence of a third party!!! The attitude of the invigilator is not correct, which affects the overall exam mood. An explanation is needed, and I can cooperate infinitely to provide relevant evidence!! PS: The registration fee for this exam is 500 yuan. I registered earlier and came to take the exam unexpectedly because it was about to expire. I never thought I would pass the exam, so there is no cheating mentality! I have a calm mindset, and secondly, I haven't answered many questions yet, so there is no possibility of cheating subjectively or objectively. The registration fee doesn't matter, I need an explanation!Review from Jade L

My exam was cancelled due to a hurricane and Prometric emailed me stating that they would send me a confirmation for my new test date after 3-5 business days and not to email or call Prometric. I called today, on day 5, as I have not received any updates and the customer service representative was extremely condescending. As soon as I told her my situation she told me I was supposed to call the testing center- which I was told not to do by the testing center because Prometric handles all exam scheduling. Then she proceeded to huff and puff into the phone while I opted to read her the full email Prometric sent me specifically stating 3-5 business days and PROMETRIC will get back to me and she continued to talk to me like I am stupid. Repeating herself over again telling me it's not their responsibility and I should've called the testing center. I asked her to transfer me to a manager because I did not want to deal with her attitude when I am asking for help and she put me back on the hold line for another 30 minute wait to talk to another regular customer service representative. I hung up and called my testing center, and again was informed that they do not handle the rescheduling and that Prometric is supposed to update me.Review from Carrie T

If you have a choice at all, testing in person is much better than the online option. I was kicked out of my test for using the restroom during the designated 5 minute break between test sections. They are rude and don't give you your money back. How on earth they have a great rating with the BBB is beyond me. Trust the customer reviews; that's your indicator right there.Review from Angela S

Prometric is failing HCA in Washington state for continous monetary reasons. I have took my skills test 2x..I have received adequate support through peer mentorship and I passed all but one simple skill that I know was accurate according to Prometrics standards because I rechecked it. This has caused a major impact in my life. I haven't worked since 4/30/24 due to the negligence of a Prometric instructor who observed me at the time. Very biased and someone needs to be held accountableReview from Steven F

If I could give less stars I would. Opted for the remote test, because I live an hour from the test center. Unfortunately, had to retake the test because the application they used to secure your computer uses half the screen space and you can’t read or answer questions with a 10 inch screen. Whoever came up with this idea wasn’t very bright. By the grace of God, I was offered a retest at a test center. I scheduled my test a week in advance and on the Friday evening, three days before my test they canceled it and rescheduled it for a day that i’m out of the country. This is the last possible date to this exam before it changes. I’ve been waiting a year to take this examReview from Pat K

was scheduled for a test, but when I went to take it they refused it because of I use a Track Mouse. I have reviewed all Documents that was sent to me, including all links in them. There is No where it says you can't use it. after being on the phone for an hour they sent me a link for Accommodations. to me Accommodations for any test is Medical or Translations issues. I would have never thought of a Trackball Mouse being something I need an accommodation for. they charge $150 for the test I was to take, they aren't' returning the money which they should because it's their issue not saying in any Documation what's allowed to be used while taking the test, everything they sent me talks about clothing and food. Even the link in the email says nothing about what's not allowed hardware wise on your computer.Review from Henry I

I paid the fee to test and they told me there were no open spots to test and kept my money. Prometric is a scam.Review from Mike V

The online scheduling system is f’ing disaster! Impossible to use - keeps getting stuck on page 2. It does not matter what browser you use. Their customer service is non-existent. The testing center I’ve used is fine, but scheduling is awful and they make it impossible to reschedule - probably so they can charge you a $50 fee when you don’t show up. Their locations are in the crappy areas of town.Review from Ashli D

ZERO STARS Terrible scheduling experience and subpar customer service. The website to schedule is faulty and does not work. Good luck getting through to anyone to help you in a timely manner. I just spent two hours on hold trying to schedule a test date, ANY date, and was hung up on at hour 2. The fact that I likely need to take an additional two hours out of my work day to restart the process and get my test scheduled is unacceptable. Way to make secondary testing accessible - not! Proctor-U was a better experience, and they left me during my break for 1.5 additional hours on the day of my last test. That says A LOT.
