Before the section begins it gives you a chance to test your headphones to make sure they're working properly. It says it will play a separate audio from the left ear and then from the right. It says that it was only going to play audio in my left ear, but both sides of the headphones were playing the same audio. It was also the same for the right side. There was a note on the screen saying that if audio was playing on both sides instead of one specific side to inform the test administer. The recruiter told me that other people had taken it like that and it should be fine. I've actually read some posts on here from people having the same issue and that it was normal. I'm just not sure if the headphones weren't setup correctly.
During this portion of the actual test part. It seemed like I wasn't hearing a separate audio form my left and right side, but rather a combination of both sides playing in both of my ears making it impossible to differentiate which side it was actually coming from. I was hearing the even and odd numbers, but could never tell which side they were coming from because they were being played at the exact same time from both sides. Since it said on the screen right before this portion of the test that it shouldn't be doing that. I feel like it might not have been working properly. I have read that other people have experienced this and its normal, so I just wasn't sure if this wasn't something I needed to be sure is corrected before taking this part of the test again.
