Regarding Exam got Suspended at middle without any reason.

[Sudheerreddy25]

Hi Team,

My Databricks Certified Data Engineer Associate (Version 3) exam got suspended on 25th August and it is in progress state.

I was there continuously in front of the camera and suddenly the alert appeared, and support person asked me to show the full table and I have shown the entire room and table twice. And I am not sure why the support person still suspended my exam. As there was nothing suspicious. Please solve this issue.

I really need to get the certification and its really important for my project. Please I am requesting you please resolve this issue as soon as possible.

I was in the middle of the exam and it was going well.

Please let me know If you can resume my exam or if you can reschedule the same for anyday.

I have raised the request in the below link:

Hi Support team,

I require your urgent support.

Same thing happened with me. I cleared everything before exam . Proctor did not ask to show room before test start, while giving exam he/she asked to rotate camera. 

FYI-my desk was clear, in center away from walls. no headphone nothing. Phone was also away as it was asked in intructions to keep it away at a reachable distance in case of need

Below warining he/she gave- which I verifed
1.He/She was  doubtful about lightbulb, being a camera- I showed it by lighting and closeup 

2. show table- I showed , it was all clear

3. show room-  and walls

Proctoring should be done better , like Pearson View- they check everything before to verify and ask in case they have doubts.

Hello team, 

Same thing happened to me as well by Kryterion. This is very unfair, no reasoning nothing they just suspend you and don't give response post that. I doubt why google tied up with such worst online proctoring system.

I wrote a brief email to google cloud support om the same. It just happened now and while searching online i found these comments.

Hello team,

I require your urgent support. I am writing about an issue during my Databricks Data Analyst Associate exam on September 3, 2024. I had finished all the questions and was reviewing my answers in the last 10 minutes when the proctor suddenly stopped my exam. They asked me to show the area around me, which I did by rotating my laptop to show all the walls and my empty table-twice. Despite this, the proctor suspended my exam without any explanation. 

I don't understand why this happened, as my room was empty also it's strange that I need to give check of the area near me in the last minutes of the test once that I have completed all the questions. Regarding the questions, they were 50 instead of 45. (https://www.databricks.com/learn/certification/data-analyst-associate)
