  • You can’t take the test in a public space such as a park, internet café or restaurant.

Tabletop and Seating

  • Your computer and keyboard must be on a desk or other tabletop surface.
  • The tabletop and surrounding area must be clear of all items not approved for use during the test, including cell phones (except when used for check in), cameras, notes and study materials. The furniture and décor in the room do not need to be modified or removed.
  • You must sit in a standard chair; you can’t sit or lie on a bed, couch or overstuffed chair.

  • Avoid wearing items such as jewelry, tie clips, cuff links, ornate clips, combs, barrettes, headbands and other hair accessories.
  • If you wear eyeglasses you will be asked to show them to the camera so the proctor checks them prior to starting. You will show your eyeglasses from all angles to make sure they do not have a camera or earphones.

Note-Taking Materials

  • You may NOT take notes on regular paper, for security purposes.
  • You may use one of the following to take notes:
    • One small desktop whiteboard with erasable marker.
    • One sheet of paper inside a transparent sheet protector with an erasable marker.
    • You will be asked to erase all notes in view of the proctor at the end of the test.

Restroom Break

BE AWARE THAT THE PROCTOR WILL BE MONITORING YOU AT ALL TIMES THROUGH THE CAMERA.
