Once the proctor has started the exam, you may turn past the first page and begin the exam. Type your exam answers in the Exam4 software. If your exam has multiple-choice questions, you answer them in the Exam4 software by toggling between the essay window and the multiple-choice window. 

Finish and Submit your Exam (You will NOT be able to make changes to your exam after this step)

  1. Select the 鈥淓nd Exam鈥� menu option, and click 鈥淓nd Exam Now鈥�.
  2. Check the confirmation box. Click 鈥淥K, End exam鈥�.
  3. In the pop-up window, select "Submit Electronically." If your exam has submitted successfully, you will see an Exam Submittal Receipt with a green box at the top stating "Exam Submittal Successful." Check the confirmation box and click "OK."
  4. Select "Exit Exam4," and click "Exit Exam4 Now." 
  5. Check the "I'm sure" box (if you are) and click "Exit Exam4."

If your laptop encounters a problem during the exam, notify the proctor immediately. All proctors have been trained to address commonly occurring Exam4 issues. You will have two options:

  1. Restart your laptop and continue your existing exam. A proctor or administrator should be present when you restart your laptop.
  2. Handwrite the remainder of your exam in a bluebook, picking up where you left off on the laptop. The Exam4 software saves your exam every 10 seconds, so you should assume the professor will receive a printout of everything entered into the laptop prior to the laptop failure.
