My Databricks exam on April 30th, 2025 at 10:15 PM IST was suspended despite my complete adherence to the proctorโs instructions. I thoroughly scanned the room, showing all four walls and rotating the camera in all directions as requested. After the initial checks, the exam was resumed, but several issues significantly disrupted my exam experience:
I was presented with 56 questions instead of the usual 45, with the same 90-minute time limit.
I kept receiving frequent pop-up warnings to keep my eyes on the screen, even though I was fully focused. These warnings disrupted my ability to read and comprehend the questions, which were lengthy and required scrolling.
I was asked to turn off both the AC and fan due to a buzzing noise, even though I had cleared three previous Databricks exams in the same environment without such feedback.
Despite following all the guidelines, I was informed during review that I did not meet behavioral/environmental requirements, leading to the suspension of my exam. This was unexpected and disheartening.
I respectfully request the Databricks team to investigate this issue and provide a fair opportunity to complete the exam successfully.
Looking forward to your support and a positive resolution.
Regards,
Lakshmipriya
