However, some students reported that the audio was muffled and overpowered the conversations they were being examined on. “If some irregular technical occurrence during an aural session which has impacted on the candidate’s performance has occurred, the SEC has procedures in place to ensure that candidates are not disadvantaged.”
“But as the tape progressed and got louder, the static noise overpowered the French conversation completely and there was muffled noises coming from the tape and we couldn’t hear the tape at all.”
How are they going to differentiate who was affected and who was not I wonder
