I took the online test this morning but had a few technical missteps which lead to logging three attempts.

1. For my first attempt I used a browser without flash. In the instructions it says to use a computer rather than a tablet, which I did. But in order to minimize the chance of a crash during the test I used a computer with a freshly installed OS and a new browser profile. The system prompted me to install the Flash Plugin in order to proceed and logged a test attempt.

2. After I completed the test my login session had expired and I did not see a score or know if the test results were submitted. It appears this was due to the one hour period of inactivity that elapsed in the non-test window while I was taking the test in the popup window.

3. I logged in again attempting to view a score and questions missed. The system logged a third test attempt.

Has anyone else experienced this? I imagine the session timeout (bullet 2) is hitting everyone. Is it a negative having the system log 3 test attempts?
