I had a terrible experience at my alloted center. I'm a repeater, so I've seen many centers last year as well. This was by far the worst center and exam taking experience I've ever had.
The landline phones kept ringing throughout the exam duration and no one would pick it up right away. They kept announcing multiple times on the loud speaker with high volume that one or two students did not start their exam yet. This is so disturbing to the students who already started their exam and are trying to concentrate. Especially since the first section is VARC and you're trying to read. They were breaking some 200 student's concentration to tell the staff to check on 1-2 people who did not start their exam. There has to be a better system than this.
Secondly, there's too many invigilators, for such a small exam hall. There's an internal lift right in the center of the exam hall, and a staircase around ithe lift well. It was one of those old lifts with two manual metal collapsible gates that we see in old buildings. The center had 4 floors and 4 exam halls, the staff kept moving between the floors the entire duration of the exam. Every single time, they would not close the lift door and there would be noise. The lift kept playing elevator music and asking to please close the door in 3 languages.
Completely broke my concentration during the exam. It was a constant source of noise, not just once or twice. It was at least 20-30 times in 2 hours. I kept reading and re-reading the same thing because I couldn't understand it due to the noise. I had an entire RC left with just 4 mins time. It was not enough time to start and complete a new RC and I completed all other questions in the section. Just 1-2 mins more, I could've gotten to all questions. Noise continued in the next two sections as well. The invigilators kept chatting away like they were at a picnic.
Minimum decency is to not to create disturbance in an exam center. It's unfair to the candidates who have been studying hard day and night for an entire year. After the exam when I was reading about the exam center experiences of other candidates on reddit, I saw that some people had pin drop silence after the exam started and absolutely no distractions. I wish I had a good experience too. This year is my second and last CAT attempt, it could've gone better if I had better center.

The system turned off twice during the examination, once during VARC section and the other during Quants section. Took around 5-6mins to get restarted again. Although no time was lost, this was a bit irritating.

Lots of chatter & noises while attempting paper. And the problem is they were not stopping for 10-15 minutes. I just put fingers in my ear and did the VARC section. After 20-30 minutes all was good. But after few minutes they started again. Very very pathetic experience. As I was unable to read the RC & VA options mindfully. It costed me 2-3 questions as the time was up.

Personally I didn’t face any problem but the guy sitting next to me had faced problems like turning the screen off randomly multiple times. So the invigilators had to come frequently and took him somewhere else because he wasn’t able to complete the exam in that system. Even i was getting distracted when this was happening and this was the time when i was reading the RC’s so it was a problem for me to concentrate there

My PC crashed after 30 mins of starting the exam. I panicked since the timer was running out. Although the staff was kind enough and they looked over the matter quickly and seated me on a different desk but it created a lot of anxiety and eventually affected the other two sections. Also I had a hard time navigating the mouse and selecting the answers. Overall it was a below average experience.

The mic announcement did not announced for the commencement of exam.
People logged in on different times due to that. This created panic like situation.
Exam hall went into chaotic zone.
Invigilators were lost and unaware of their jobs/responsibility.
Poor crowd management.
Worst invigilation. Forget to distribute the pens.

Latecomers made lot of noise, and one of the late student didn't start on time so invigilator and student literally argue while we was attempting the VARC section. It made me loose focus for early 4-5 min. Otherwise all ok.

I was seated next to the invigilators computer (the one who checks the application number etc). Once the exam began he was seated there along with three more invigilators who were talking and discussing a few things but it was quite irritating because VARC is a section that requires good concentration and I wasn’t able to concentrate. Anyway, after a couple of minutes the invigilators stood a few feat apart and were gossiping. Although they were whispering, it was quite loud and annoying. It may sound like a minor issue but personally I tend to lose my concentration during Varc if there’s someone talking right next to me.

My pc got turned off twice in between the exam, which would have cost me atleast 1-2 quants question, as while the invigilator was looking into the issue, the clock was ticking and I then got panic.. I feel this is the worst thing which may happen to an exam taker
