Before starting any exam:

• Ensure you are connected to a strong and stable internet connection. 
• Ensure your laptop is plugged into the power and your battery is fully charged in case of power failure.
• Ensure that you have privacy for the entire exam - do not interact with other people or receive any outside assistance. You should be the only person in the room. 
• Remain focused on the exam, do not look away from your device. No resources are permitted, this includes but is not limited to: phones, textbooks, or notes.
• Make sure that your camera is not covered and your face remains fully framed by the camera at all times during the exam. At the top of the screen is an eyebrow pull-down that says Monitoring.  If you click on this, you can see your live video feed. Clicking anywhere in Examplify will exit this screen and return you back to Examplify. When you enter the exam, click on the video feed to confirm you are in the view of the camera. 
• If using a laptop, disconnect external cameras and microphones - use built-in resources only. If using a PC that is not equipped with built-in camera or microphone, connect one external camera and one external microphone prior to launching Examplify. You may not use virtual camera software with ExamID or ExamMonitor.
• Turn off your cell phone, music, TV and remove headphones/earbuds.
• Do not read exam questions out loud.
• Use the bathroom before your exam as you will not be able to get up during the exam.
• Do not get up from your computer for any reason until your exam is complete.
• Review the Exam Day Guide for Exam Takers
  

Important information about taking your baseline photo:
Before you take your baseline photo, confirm you are in a well-lit area and the light on your face is brighter than the light in back of you. Ensure you have a light on in front of you and not behind, increase brightness on your device and ensure you do not have your back to a window that would create a shadow on your face.
