Frequently Asked Questions for Students

What do I need to know before taking my exam? Ensure your computer is charged and has a strong internet connection. We recommend students take their exam in a quiet private location to limit potential flags and distractions.

Recommended Syllabus Language

The sample text below can be used in your course or syllabus. It explains that students must use LockDown Browser and Respondus Monitor for their online tests.

Require a Practice Exam

Ensure your first exam using Respondus Monitor runs smoothly! Have students take an ungraded practice quiz that requires the use of LockDown Browser and a webcam, before taking a graded exam.
