Hey y'all, I finished sitting my LSAT today, I think I did well, but I found that time was taken away from me because the proctor was speaking loudly inside the testing room.

The official time to begin was 8am, but we were allowed a staggered start, so those who came in at 7.30am were allowed to start at 7.30am, and I believe someone people were allowed to come in later too after 8am. So there was people coming in during the time I was completing the first two sections. The proctor was bringing people into the room and talking to them in her normal speaking voice (not whispering) and providing instructions. I could hear her through my noise cancelling earmuffs provided by the centre.

I had to re-read a few stims 2 or 3 times because her speaking loudly interfered with my thinking process, so I lost time that way. I still managed to finish and complete all the questions, but I dont think she should have been talking loudly like that at all - also the staggered entry was weird too, is that how its normally done at testing centres? During the 10 min break, I went to the ladies at reception and asked them to advice the proctor to use her inside voice or whisper, and they said she will. But she was just as loud and interruptive for the last 3 sections as she was for the first two.

If all of the above is normal of testing centres I would have just taken the test at home.
