What must you do if you cannot complete your exam due to technical issues?

• A. File an incident report with the proctor and contact NCARB in writing
• B. Wait and hope issues resolve
• C. Submit a request for a partial score
• D. Ignore and continue another time

Answer: (A)

If a technical problem stops you from finishing the exam, you must document what happened by filing an incident report with the proctor and contacting NCARB in writing. This creates an official record of the disruption, including when it occurred and what went wrong, which NCARB will review to determine next steps such as remediation, revisiting the exam, or arranging a retake. Simply hoping the issue resolves, asking for a partial score, or continuing later does not establish a formal record or guarantee any remedy, and could jeopardize your eligibility.
