- This petition is for the exam MN2135 we completed on the 10th January 2018. Due to the disruption caused by the Invigilator in the middle of the exam, Students were unable to concentrate, wrong calculators were taken away without replacement. Students who had to use the calculator as they had no choice were penalised (which were most of the students.) This had also affected students around those with the wrong calculators as the Invigilator caused a disruption during the exam and he did not the add extra time he wasted at the end (15 minutes). This also affected our ability to concentrate due to the concern for our peers near us.

I am currently compiling the specific accounts of the disturbances you all sent me to build our formal complaint. Send a direct message to the department head today to keep the pressure on them. We need them to acknowledge the lost time and the unfair policy regarding calculators.

The administration can no longer ignore this disruption now that our group has grown this large. Send a direct email to the department head today to insist they acknowledge these specific exam failures. Keep the pressure up until we get a formal response.

179018977, unfair treatment of people who had wrong calculator, no alternative calculator and many interruptions by invigilators, also caused distress and inability to answer a large proportion of questions which will hinder our grades
The disturbance disrupted many students while they were trying to concentrate. Not to mention many students being unable to do the paper properly without a calculator
179048439 - Disrupted by invigilators during the exam making me forget what I was writing
179027975 my calculator was taken off me and I was not given a replacement. This meant that I could not complete the exam
179048549 This is a very concerning matter and needs to be looked into as it is unfair on the students.
I agree.
