Online Test Format
Length: Students will be given 50 minutes to solve 20 problems. The system will provide students with a warning message when there are 10 minutes remaining and another when there are 5 minutes remaining. The test will be automatically submitted when time runs out or when the student manually clicks the 'Submit' button.
Answer formats: For free-response answers, please only enter numerical values (e.g., 2, 6.5, 100, -78.2) as answers."
Rules:
- Students should NOT use calculators, smartphones, or internet resources.
- Students should work independently and NOT communicate with anyone in any way during the test.
- Proctors should NOT answer any questions regarding the test content.
What-if Scenarios
- A student accidentally logs off/exits the browser - The student should immediately log back in. The test will be saved, but the system timer will continue to run.
- A student encounters hardware/software/internet problems - The student should promptly log back in using a different computer. The test will be saved, but the system timer will continue to run.
- A student accidentally starts the test - If a student inadvertently clicks the 'start' button on the student portal, the system will not initiate the test immediately. Instead, it will direct the student to a 'staging' area for 30 seconds before the actual test commencement. This 30-second window allows the student to reconsider starting the test. Once the test begins, it should be completed within the allocated 50 minutes.
