There are two likely causes for a lack of access to your exam on your scheduled exam day. #1. Forgotten exam access credentials:  On your exam day, once you are in your online proctoring session, you will need your exam access credentials to access your exam.  Your exam access credentials are supplied in your registration confirmation email, sent immediately after your exam purchase at omcp.org.  The email is sent from ‘team@omcp.org’, the subject begins with “Authorized to take the” and your exam access username and password are toward the end of the email.  Your exam access credentials are supplied in your registration confirmation email, sent immediately after your exam purchase.  On your exam day, once you are in your online proctoring session, you’ll be asked for credentials to access your exam.  Once in your proctoring session, you'll need the exam access credentials supplied in your authorization email. To prove that your session is proctored, pour proctor will then enter his or her 'monitor' credentials and your exam will begin. After you enter your credentials, the proctor enters his or her monitor password to start your exam. The exam will only start if you enter your credentials and the proctor enters his or her monitor credentials. When both are entered, the exam begins. #2. Unauthorized or expired access: This is rare. However, attempts to access exams to which you are not entitled will fail within your proctoring session. Please schedule only the exams to which you have access. Please schedule your session well-before the 90-day expiration date. Your exam access expiration date is noted in your authorization email. NOTE: The proctoring system won’t stop you from reserving a proctoring session for other OMCP exams, or from scheduling dates past your expiration date, but unauthorized exams will not be present when you show up for proctoring.
