My son took the AP English exam today. Out of 217 students, Bluebook completely lost the data for 31 students. They now have to retake the exam, ironically, in an actual paper bluebook using pencils. Why doesn't Bluebook have local storage of data for these situations?

True re exploits, though I would think they would put more trust in the test proctors, since they have to by necessity anyway, and design with the priority on no data loss. The amount of stress on these kids and wasted time (5 hours for the test, per kid) is unbelievable. 31 kids at one school x maybe hundreds of schools going through the same across the country.
