However, no assurance can be given as to whether a testing spot will open up. No open books, notebooks, crib sheets, phones, pagers, palm type PDA's, etc. are allowed. No talking or leaving the lab while the exam is in progress. Test takers are monitored while taking tests. Proctors are trained to observe students to ensure that students follow test taking policies, and that no cheating occurs.
Proctors serve as the student's advocate for resolving problems.
If you encounter problems of any sort, contact the proctor immediately. The proctor can help you with technical difficulties, and ensure that the conditions for the exam are quiet and comfortable. Proctors must supply the scratch paper. The proctor will examine the sheet of paper to make sure there is no potential exam material on the paper. Scratch paper must be returned to proctor after exam for disposal.
