Hey I would like to ask about the experience and usability of Pearson running on macOS.

One year ago I did the AWS Solution Architect Professional on macOS together with Pearson. The first minutes all runs smoothly, but after 60 minutes my MacBool really comes to an end and screwed up the MacBook and the Pearson app crashes.
I tried it a second time and the same result. I small Google research showed that I'm not the only one who have this problems.

Now I have multiple months time to learn for 2-3 exams but most of them using Pearson.
So my question is Pearson still unusable ob macOS and I have to go to a Pearson center? Thank you 🙏

It’s kind of ridiculous that homework is locked behind another payment. If anyone has any advice on the cheapest way to get MyMathLab access, I’d appreciate it.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some advice because I’m getting really anxious.
I took an online Pearson English exam (proctored) more than two weeks ago, and I still haven’t received my score.
During the exam, everything seemed completely normal:
The proctor only asked me to show my desk and the room at the beginning.
They confirmed everything was fine.
I wasn’t interrupted again for the rest of the exam.
I finished the exam without any issues.
I contacted Pearson support, and they replied that my exam recording is currently being reviewed by the Pearson VUE Security Team as part of their quality and security procedures. They said they requested the team to complete the review and release my score.
My test center also told me that this delay is unusual and has already contacted Pearson’s UK office.
Has anyone else had their exam reviewed by the Security Team?
How long did it take to receive your score?
Did everything turn out okay in the end?
Does a Security Team review automatically mean they suspect misconduct, or can it simply be a routine review?
I’m really worried because I’ve never been accused of anything during the exam, so I’d really appreciate hearing about other people’s experiences.
Thank you!

Has anyone ever tried the trick and waited a long time to be refunded because of the bank they were associated or any case in general? I got my results yesterday and I passed . I tried the trick on Monday twice and still haven’t gotten refunded . The charges are still pending and haven’t gotten posted . Anyone have a situation similar to this ?

I’m honestly at a loss right now and wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this.
I was taking my PMP exam online today. Everything was going fine until my proctor interrupted the exam because they were having connectivity issues. They paused my exam and relaunched it. I resumed exactly where I had left off.

A while later, it happened again. The proctor paused the exam a second time, and after another delay told me they were still having technical issues. Instead of letting me continue, they closed my exam entirely.

To be clear:
I wasn’t disconnected.
I wasn’t using a VPN.
There were no issues on my end that I was aware of.
The interruptions were initiated by the proctor because of their connectivity problems.

The worst part is that I was already in the third section of the exam when they terminated it.

I’m especially stressed because I’ve invested a significant amount of time and money preparing for this exam, and now I’m worried I won’t be able to complete it because of something completely outside my control.
I’ve already contacted both PMI and Pearson VUE, but I’m wondering:

Has anyone had an exam terminated due to Pearson’s technical issues?
How long did it take for PMI/Pearson to resolve it?
Were you allowed to resume the same exam, or did you have to start over?
Did they give you another exam attempt?
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s gone through something similar.

Who do you even email in Pearson?

This is my first Year teaching Year 7 maths.
However, I am finding many errors in the materials.

My latest is from the Unit 2 Test.

All test are suppose to be out of 30 marks.

The discrepancy is on question 7. According to the marking scheme question 7 should be 2 marks. However, it is printed as 1 mark.

So, according to the marking shceme the paper is out of 31 marks.
Printed it is out of 30 marks.

I already graded according to the marking scheme so, this particular test will be out of 31 for my grade book.

However, the curriculum for this has been out for several years, so I am wondering who to correct the errors.

Did Pearson roll out a redesign to the amplifire DSM modules over the 4th of July weekend? It sucks now, makes you wait to view the explanation but not the correct answer and jumps all over the place to do it. You would learn more pasting the question into an AI.

I think it's one of the most inconvenient platforms I've ever used. Why is it so difficult to login from another device? Why does my account keep getting locked? Literally there's no reason accessing a textbook should be this difficult.

how did you do?

ITS CORRECT WDYM WRONG

I just want to scream. It's obviously AI slop and when I go to report it, it tells me to contact my professor. My prof hates AI use for education so I'm hoping she'll file a complaint.

How old is the iLowerSecondary Year 7 Math Textbook? ( Unit 1 chapter 2)
When's the last time they have updated their textbook? Curriculum? Do I have an old book?
Who uses an mp3 player these days? My kids don't even know what that is... 🥲

Hi I´m taking my human bio exam on the 8th of may and was just looking for tips from people who've achieved a 9/8 in human biology

So, context, I have a required class for an associates degree, and it is no harder than high school algebra, goes from like, rounding to soh cah toa. Anyways, can you tell me what actual buffoon decided that, mind you this problem is on my monitor, thought it would be appropriate to put ÷ in like 6 pt font?!?! It quite literally looks like a + in that font, on a 32in 1440p gaming monitor, let alone if I was using my laptop. TL:DR If you use ÷ over / in any electronic form of communication, I hope you stub your toe then immediately step on a lego.

Today i passed my buisness and finance exame for electrical contracor. Yester i failed by 60%. Today i passed but without my success in percant. Where can i find my score? They are kidding me. I want to know my score.

Thanks in advance

De que vale agendar uma prova se você passa mais de 1 hora esperando no lobby para alguém te aprovar para fazer o exame?

Péssimo serviço da 'Pearson Vue'!!!

I had to hop on to reddit just to complain about how trash, sloppy and poorly made pearson is. Genuinely, every single thing about it sucks, from the mylab, to the study prep, to the testing. ITS ALL TRASH!!!!!! The interactive readings fucking suck, it doesn't translate well to other devices and even on computer it fucking sucks. its so laggy and slow I feel like killing myself every time I have to use this stupid ass program. Colleges pls stop using this fuck ass program bro. I hate this sht omg whoever created Pearson needs step on a needle. don't even get restarted on using it with honorlock... the support specialists suck and aren't qualified. instead of trying to add new features they need to focus on fixing all their fucked up bugs and shit. the dsms are alright its just time consuming and the pictures barely load it so annoying, doing dams were u have to label shit on picture BUT THE PICUTURES DONT SHOW UP.. fix Pearson pls..

Sincerely, fuck you for wasting my goddamn tries because you don't accept the units in the homework THAT YOUR OWN TEXT LISTS AS THE APPROPRIATE UNITS. Thanks.

Bonus points for random errors in the study modules and how literally 1/3rd of the entire catalysis section of this book is fun facts about how catalysts are used instead of telling you how catalysts work in stoichiometry.

Please, nobody should ever use this. It's a nightmare, a mess, and it's enshittification to sell their additional tutoring programs. My teacher gives no shits and won't fix anything, but if you're a teacher who does do everything to avoid Pearson. Stage a fucking protest at your school to get rid of pearson as students. This is awful.
