I was supposed to write the GMAT test at 11 am today at the Kolkata Test Center. However I was unable to do so along with 2 other candidates who suffered the same fate. Apparently there was some server issue and we waited till 2 pm to see whether the server connection was restored or the problem was resolved. Till then there was no such confirmation. The other candidates along with myself were asked for alternate dates about when we would like to give the exam however any mail regarding the confirmation of reschedule has not come yet. The reschedule was not something we wanted though.
The question is did anyone face a similar test cancellation today (6th November, 2013) due to some server problem from pearson vue? The answer to this question might help get an understanding about how many people faced the same problem today.
