I am new to this forum but needed help. As fellow medical students, would like to ask you about what an appropriate action should be if you took a few seconds more than the time allotted on an exam?

Would you, as a disciplinary action, warn the student, cancel his exam, fail the clerkship, report to dean to be written in student record, suspend, extricate?

I don't have much sympathy for people who can't plan ahead 10-15 seconds, or who would risk failure to randomly guess 5-10 questions and gain maybe 1-2 right answers. "Too busy to hear" is also a pretty weak excuse, given how many warnings are given about time, both auditory and written. Guess I'd either cancel or fail the exam, depending on exactly how flagrant the student was being.
