If you are unable to test because you do not meet the requirements, what should you do?

• A. You should reschedule without any penalty.
• B. You should request a manual verification of requirements.
• C. You accept responsibility for any fees lost as a result.
• D. You should attempt anyway and hope for leniency.

Answer: (C)

Eligibility rules for testing are non-negotiable; if you don’t meet them, you can’t be tested and any fees already paid are typically non-refundable. Accepting responsibility for any fees lost preserves integrity and aligns with how exam policies enforce eligibility. It avoids trying to bypass rules or rely on leniency, which isn’t guaranteed and can lead to complications. Rescheduling without penalty isn’t appropriate when the reason is not meeting the requirements, manual verification wouldn’t apply to a failure to meet eligibility, and attempting the test anyway undermines the requirement verification.
