Guys,

I have been trying to schedule my exam for the past three days... I took the voucher only three days back.
It keeps telling..

An error occurred:


There was an error completing the request. This may be due to heavy traffic volume, please try again in a few moments.

I tried the helpline.. it is IVRS.. please suggest me what is the way out....

Hi sekhar2301

Yesterday my friend also got the same error... but he was able to book an appoinment at some different location he selected intially..
So, this error might be coming as no slots are left for the location you are trying to register...
Try selecting different location or different time...

Thanks guys!! I tried a diff site..there too hit the same problem for sometime..now it got the confirmation there.. but site which is far off and at an earlier date..
However I will try to reschedule until the window is open for the other site.

I was short of time so choose any center later when i went to change as per my location preference "it said some error" tried four five days same results.
I have to travel for four hours. NOW.


A human being should beable to change diaper, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
Specialization is for insects.

I dont believe this !!!!
Yesterday ( 19/10/09 ) at 5pm, I got a mail from prometric which had my CAT admit card saying that they have changed my test centre. This is ridiculous .....the funny part is the test site phone mentioned is the same!!!
What the crap is going on ??? They dont even intimate me that my centre has been chucked out of their list or watevr and just send me an admit card ..jlt . I thought that CAT database has been hacked and my account was compromised...but i guess that did not happen !!
wat the crap !!! wat is the point of registering early , the damn online thing is so hopeless....so annoying !! damned thing !!Wretched piece of nonsense .....P&P format rules man!!!
