The Admissions Office will be in charge of scheduling the students who are interested to take the OOSE. Applicants are advised to prepare the following during their exams:
Strong Internet Connection
Zoom application installed on their gadget
Successful registration through the provided Zoom meeting credentials 3 days before the exam schedule
Another gadget where they can take the OOSE, preferably a laptop
On the day of the exam:
Test-takers must enter the Zoom meeting room with their videos on to ensure integrity during the exams.
Test-takers will be briefed by the assigned proctor before the start of the exams.
The link for the exam, using the ClassMarker application will be given on-the-spot and must be accessed immediately by the test takers.
If the test-taker experiences internet connection problems while taking the exam, he/she must immediately inform the proctor through the contact numbers provided during the briefing. Test-takers who will encounter such problems will be given only one chance to return to the meeting room and continue the test.
If a test-taker gets disconnected twice, he/she will no longer be able to continue taking the exam and will be disqualified from taking the OOSE.
Test-takers will be admitted promptly to the Zoom meeting room. After five minutes, the proctor will proceed with the preliminaries. Once this starts, the meeting room will be closed.
Applicants who will not be able to attend their scheduled date of exam may connect with the Admissions Office to get another schedule only if they can provide a valid reason as to why they missed their first schedule.
