The test centres i have seen are mainly internet cafes which just as they were either starting to struggle or go out of business found a new way to make money. They are business people not guradians of our frontiers so you can't really blame them. I blame the goverment departments who have tried to do this on the cheap, yet still charge a big fee

A mate once told me that he went to a test centre for one of the compita exams the woman as he left said to him and another guy who had taken a test and by chance finished at the same time. Im surprised you didn't cheat take in your laptops or books Basically implying that she really didn't care if they cheated or not.
I have on more than one occasion on similar exams had my ID waved at no its ok and a little smile by an examiner who then might dissapear off to do his own thing so people could if they want cheat
Trust Me compaita and microsoft exams go to a lot more effort than the goverment to keep there tests secure and cheat free. But it still happens.
