The final exam

At a glance

• The exam has 50 multiple-choice questions, drawn at random from a larger bank of questions.
• You have 75 minutes.
• You need 70% to pass.
• You answer one question at a time and cannot go back to an earlier question.
• The exam is closed book. Your camera, microphone and, on a computer, your screen are recorded for the whole exam.
• Reloading the exam page is allowed. The page has to open again within 90 seconds, or the exam is submitted as it stands.
• If the recording stops because of a technical problem, the exam does not count as an attempt. You can start a fresh exam two times on your own; after that, a member of our staff sets up the next one.
• If you fail, you can sit the exam again at no extra cost, up to ten attempts in total.
• A member of our staff reviews every flagged exam, and every exam that ended because you left it, before a certificate is issued. The decision comes within 24 hours.
