2015-2016 New York Medical College Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
My test is frozen at 26% too, I did the "video test" and it worked fine but the first video won't load. I typed in the technical support box about 10 minutes ago and no response. Anyone know what we're supposed to do? I'm worried if I refresh or log out and back in I'll get the "test already completed" thing.

I'm just going to wait and do something else in the meantime
 
Tech support said " Please Exit the test, go back to the test page and press resume test"

"We're having a server problem that will take a few minutes to resolve. It's affecting all users. Hang tight everyone!"

This is from the messenger box on the side
 
the chat bubble on the right.

Ganesh! text me back! I just keep getting "..." I know you are thinking of me
 
can you imagine what it's like at their "headquarters" right now?

It says I have no tests pending and one completed. I have yet to take the test though...
 
Does anyone know if we reschedule if it is still for the middle of August? I am willing to reschedule for some other time this week but I don't want to be a month behind everyone who takes it tonight.

I agree. This is pushing back all other obligations I had today...it's sort of ridiculous actually 🙁 It's tempting me to withdraw from the school but I actually like this school so I'm probably going to just suck it up
 
Latest tweet: 90% of issues are resolved by refreshing the page. If you have trouble - try that first.

I have. If it weren't for these Oreos I'm snacking on, I might be a little put off.
 
Instead of communicating with casper, we need to communicate with NYMC... Obviously there is no point to contact casper at this point since they can't get a simple test running. Also the admission office should be aware of this...
 
Well everyone, I just rescheduled my test as that's literally the only part of the website that I could access. I could have submitted 1-2 more secondaries instead of dealing with this today.

I'm hungry and a bit put off from that so I guess there's that. I've refreshed like a hundred times in hopes it'll be different..

Pity we already paid the fee and they don't give refunds. Otherwise, I would have withdrawn by now...
 
So my payment isn't showing up as received even though I 'm pretty sure I've already paid twice. Ganesh finally got back to me "It means their have been payment troubles. Someone will be in touch soon to help you reschedule and make the testing process smoother." Anybody know if this means August? WTF WTF
 
New tweet: We're looking at adding another test date between now and Aug 16th to account for the issues some have seen today.

Awesome!

It kind of sucks because either way I'm not going to be happy 🙁 One that I wasted like an hour of my day, and another if I had to reschedule anyway.
 
I'm scared because it says I have a completed test. I didn't take the test yet...
 
honestly these are not optimal testing conditions. they should cancel the thing altogther and let us take it when its working properly

that's a good point. isn't this sort of like a personality test? i feel like everyone is pissed right now haha

I can already imagine the admissions committee reading our answers and thinking, "What a bunch of sour grapes. Let's reject them all"
 
Did anyone refresh from the "Relief Worker" page?? PS thank god for this thread laughing in a "quiet and comfortable place"
 
AHhh if they're going to add another test date, just do it already -___-". Being on west coast time = this is dinner time = i still need to cook and buy groceries...
 
+pissed+ Ok, I'm giving up on this for tonight. good luck everyone who made it in!:luck: I hope they reschedule a new date soon and give us a refund!
 
Casper help person says "please refresh the page"... page has been refreshed and now the test video is not working. tshill
 
just got this:

We are sorry for the difficulties you have experienced today, there were issues that could not be resolved in time for today's test. We are rescheduling the CASPer test for everyone who experienced technical issues today between now and the August date and we will keep you updated for rescheduling purposes. We thank you for your patience. This means that you cannot take the test today. Once again we apologize.

Best regards
The CASPer Team
 
Ok fellow future colleagues... I have officially given up. It says I have a completed test when I have yet to take it. I will just argue with NYMC and say I wrote answers, but CASPER failed to save it. LEGOOO!!!!!
