I want to enter my assessment score but they only want "whole" numbers.
On group A I didn't score a convenient whole number so they want me to enter false details to suit their system which I refuse to do.

Despite trying to send feed back (site times out) and letting the phone ring for 40 minutes when I did get the right dept I still can't contact them.

Another example of them wanting us to lie to get them out of the sh1t.

Any bright ideas for contacting them ?

Apart from a note tied to a brick and launched through their window which is sounding very tempting right now !!!

The beatings will continue until moral improves !
The newness has gone off that bit!!!

In the section where you enter the cert numbet of the assessment test result there is space to put a comment
I put corrected score due to test errors and then made up my
own mark by adding 4marks for the questions that didnt have a correct answer to choose.

So if DVSA ain't checking the scores against the actual results obtained (they can't be) what's to stop anyone lying and saying they've taken the test, add a totally bogus score - a pass obviously - and save themselves a few quid? You'll only get caught if you get found out and going on DVSA's past record of catching the bad guys you'd be very unlucky.

With Annual training and assessment you have to enter your training and certificates onto the system & keep your certificate with the actual score along with your training record, to be checked on your site assessment.

On mattersoftesting.blog.gov.uk/mot-testing-service-one-year-on/ Ralf — 18/10/2016 (made the comment) I like the new training and assessment structure, it should mean some of the weaker testers who never bother reading any DVSA information will get struck off, just hope DVSA doesn't bottle it and not dismiss testers that haven't passed by April.

DVSA not checking the scores against the actual results are not going to be able to dismiss testers that haven't passed by April less their site assessment coincides with that date.

So, your 96.67% can be entered as 97%, but a 93.3% should be 93%.

I did my assessment through the IMI and got 96.67%, must have made an error on one question but not sure which. I briefly looked back through the site tonight and lucky I did because I was not aware that there are other assessments on the site that needed to be completed along with the exam, luckily I found them all on the site and completed them, 100% in every section but 96.67% in the exam, was it an error or is it impossible to achieve 100% in all areas?

I'm not sure long term that all these high grades are going to help us in the long term TBH.

You can't "unbreak" the broken,you can only break the unbroken to break the break of the unbroken, for me, you cannot unbreak me, for I am already broken,so you have no need to break the break because I am not unbroken.
