Testing Space 

  1. Choose an enclosed space that allows for privacy and prevents others from entering or even passing through once you’ve started your exam. Avoid testing near windows or glass partitions to prevent others from viewing your screen.

  3. Inform any other members of your household that you are taking an exam and cannot be interrupted during it.
