This is a good development. especially in this difficult time. And i found it very appealing that Microsoft extended the voucher expirations time to January 2021.
However, as good and comfortable online proctoring is for many people in advance countries, many would still struggle with this option. Take my country (Nigeria) for example, not all people live in a place with good internet connections, even the portable WIFI procured to do exams might not be strong enough to even make it past the Internet strength test, before the exam started.
Moreso, A lot of people - some known to me, even struggle because of their vicinity. my colleagues - at my place of work, were able to get their vouchers back, after encoutering difficulties, with their internet connection while the exam is going on. This was made possible after sending mail to Pearson VUE. but i have my doubt if everybody is liable to do this.
I am wondering if the exam can be done without high Uplink strength. i hope this can be looked into. alexpayn
