Bomb Scare at ACCA Exams - Omar Salah Ahmed - 06-14-2004
Hi everyone.
As many of you are probably aware by now that in yesterdays exam there was a bomb scare right before the exam. My question is that as can be imagined the mental stress and emotional distress caused by such a gimmick right before the exam, should we write to the ACCA to show some leniency in checking the papers coz obviously we were all very distracted by this gimmick and this has effected the performance of many a canditates.
Plz advice.

Yeah one should definitely write to ACCA... I'm sure they know that by now, but getting feedback from students about the incident would make them realize how tough it is for students to face such a situation and sit for the exam after that.

Hmm... i wonder if it was a disgruntled acca candidate who made that call and if that is the case, then what were his motives to do such a thing.
