The way you share your exam is configurable and users can access an exam in 2 ways :

  • Directly through their unique exam link

  • Via their Exams page

Either or both can be used, and either or both can be disabled

๐Ÿ”— Emails / Exam Links

You can enable automate emails to be sent as soon as the exam is scheduled, or emails can be sent in bulk manually after the exam is done

๐Ÿšจ If you are running proctored exams, you should disable both communication methods to force students to access their exam via your proctoring solution.

See below for an example email and the information that is sent for an exam

๐Ÿ“„ Exams Page

When the student exam page is enabled and the exams aren't hidden, students will see their exams grouped by state:

  • Open - exams they can start now

  • Upcoming - exams that are scheduled but not open yet

  • Past - completed / closed exams
