cyber exams

[shnee]

Just this week I have sat my CPL theroy exams. I would like to say that the set up that they are using is very S***. I sat my HPL exam on Tuesday and submitted it in, while waiting for my results the system stuffed up, loosing my Exam and another person's who submitted their's 5min before mine. This person was also sitting the same exam. How can they get away with this? I was also talking to another person about these exams and they said that they came accross the same question 3 times word for word. Who actually writes the exams?

If the system was set up a bit better(not saying I could do better) it would be worth it. I also found the superviser very helpfull when my exam was lost they were very apologetic and helpful.

Thanks CASA & ASL.

shnee have they since recovered your exam as someone posted some weeks back and after some time they found the lost exam, but the lost exams seems to be a common problem, hope your has been retrieved cheers

[shnee]

No they did not recover the Exam. They made me sit it again the day after, and so did the other person that lost there's as well.

Hate to be the devils advocate, but ive sat four so far and had no probs. I much prefer sitting ATPLs one at a time than doing em all at once. As far as im concernce its a better system, although i would be pretty p!ssed off if they lost one of my exams. Hope they clear up these probs, then it will be a good system.

Hi to all

I am sitting ATPL exams one by one this seems to avoid the errors in the system (I hope) i.e loosing exams. I think that it has something to do with their system and volume of info.

Their system seems to get overloaded when a lot of people are submitting exams, this happened at Maroochydore when most of the class submitted around the same time.

CASA have told us that the exam can be retrieved if the retrieval is done within 48 hours of loosing the exam, I am yet to hear of this happening. It seems most have to re sit.
I would hate to lose a flight planning exam.

Shnee,

Any chance you could post where you did the exams. I will be completing the exams in the very near future and I hope to avoid the problems you encountered.

Also, would you be kind enough to advise which text you used for the human factors study and if it was useful.

Thanks, G

Recently sat 5 ATPL exams (2 repeats), had no problems other than with the instruction manual to my brain. Good system but too bloody expensive!

Cheers HH.
