pumpkinlove20 54 Posted October 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 7, 2021 This legitimately happened to me a few days ago. I'm a 26 year old female, 5'0, and currently halfway through my master's program which I complete online. I had a huge, comprehensive exam a few days ago that I've been studying nonstop for and truly just losing my mind (it was 175 questions that were long/scenario-based and we had four hours to complete it). The morning of my exam, I was pounding coffee and water not thinking much of it. I was definitely taking MANY bathroom breaks so it should have been a cue to stop drinking so many liquids... but of course I just kept going. So it's finally time to take my exam, I take one last potty break and sit down to sign on. Since my program is completed online, there is a third party company that signs on remotely to your desktop to make sure that you're not clicking on other tabs, there's no other display, etc. basically to stop you from cheating. They also watch you through a webcam the entire time to make sure you're not getting up or looking at your phone. I've taken several exams and so far have had no issues. This proctor in particular was having technical challenges and took FORTY MINUTES to get me signed onto my exam!!! At this point I was feeling fine, probably because my adrenaline was going as I was gearing up to take the exam. I finally get logged on, but around question 30 my bladder is already signaling for me to go pee. Of course I ignore it and keep going, I think "it'll be fine, I just need to get through this test and I'll be fine". It was not fine 😞 My bladder was filling up FAST and it's starting to take my attention away from the test. I'm definitely getting worried, but I know I can't stop and have to finish. I start shifting around in my seat, squeezing my legs, tapping my fingers, literally anything to take the pressure off my bladder. Around question 100, it's becoming painful and I'm trying sooo hard not to have an accident. I'm holding myself at this point while reading my questions as fast as possible. At question 109, I leak a little into my panties to see if it will help and it doesn't, I'm just becoming more desperate. At question 112, a little more jets out... but I can't stop myself this time. My face is burning up, I'm literally feeling so embarrassed but I couldn't stop peeing no matter how hard I tried to hold myself. I just kept helplessly wetting myself until my pants were completely soaked and a puddle was on my floor. As soon as I finished my test, I cleaned myself up and couldn't believe I just had an actually real accident 😮 Anyway, that's my story! Hope everyone enjoyed. And if anyone is wondering, I still passed my exam with the 2nd highest score in my cohort 😉 tsporty1, Seifer69, Necropotent and 51 others 42 1 1 1 9 Quote Link to comment
Bomber27 26 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Very cute story. It's a good thing it was online and not in a live classroom with other people! Quote Link to comment
wether 578 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 I've heard of such examination systems, I think the student is recorded while taking an exam and the system shows the moments when the student behaviour is unusual, to let the teacher see it. I wonder if it worked this way with you.. Quote Link to comment
Stanley79 636 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Very nice account. My masters didn't involve comprehensive exams. However, taking data for it involved long drives on some primitive roads with no shoulder I could park on and run into woodland. I eventually gave up on making the round trip dry.

KAQSW 200 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Great story! Sometimes you have to make a choice with holding on or just letting go in tough situations. At least you didn’t impact your score Quote Link to comment
watchingherhold 103 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 A really great story, very well told. What an experience you had, without affecting your exam result. Quote Link to comment
Einstein19 18 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Nice story. I've gotten into a similar situation this summer when I was taking a language assessment test online, being proctored just like this with webcams turned and screen monitored. I had to go to the bathroom so bad towards the end of the test. Luckily, the test was only an hour long and I managed to wrap up my answers 10 minutes before the time. I was literally seconds away from an accident when I rushed to the bathroom. I feel like if I was in an actual classroom I would've easily asked to use the bathroom, and nowadays tests in schools almost always allow it. But in these type of online tests with everything so strictly monitored, I find it harder to ask someone across the screen who I don't even know. wether and TimmyTrihard69 2 Quote Link to comment

justme 579 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Great story, thanks for sharing. I've know a few girls, two in high school, one in university, who in class during exams wet themselves, pre Covid. Have not witnessed those or others in class, but totally enthralled with the idea. Remote accidents are a whole different deal, also a turn on.... Quote Link to comment

Not only would such pictures be embarrassing, but with just about any school or exam provider on the planet I would imagine that the taking of such pictures could be considered an example of cheating in and of itself and/or a violation of the non disclosure agreement or other exam or school rules. I should mention that I am not a lawyer and never will be, but if I had some acting experience and the right connections I could probably play one in a movie or on TV fairly convincingly.

Also in these types of settings leaving the room or even moving outside of the webcam’s view during the exam is strictly prohibited from what I have have heard about how these types of at home or at work online exams work. I plan to take an online exam before the end of the year and I plan to wear some type of high capacity disposable undergarment for the event since my apartment has wood floors with some gaps between the floorboards in every room that I can sit down in with the exception of the bathroom. Also, for the last twenty years I have not had the best bladder control. I have difficulty holding it for more than 90 minutes and most online exams seem to be at least two hours long.

Xpgames 971 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Can totally relate! I wet myself taking the PMP exam… normally you are supposed to get a break, but my first exam was revoked for getting up during the break aka leaving the webcam viewing area. So the second time I took the test, I actually wrote the proctor if I could get up and use the restroom at the start of my break… I didn’t get a response and could not afford to have my test revoked again. I eventually couldn’t hold it and totally peed myself…. I’m sure this happens to quite a few people …. Quote Link to comment
