    For example, in the online exam platform on a particular screen, you will see the following:
    • The toolbar question number at the top of the screen acting as a header. This is simply
    to assist you to navigate between pages and to track your progress in the progress
    summary page.

    • The question number.


    • The response box.


    Your answer in the response box should clearly indicate each sub-part.

    • Tip: Facts in an exam question may be presented in a table. You may find it convenient to
    use the table in the question as a template. Simply copy and paste the original table into
    your response box, and repopulate with your answer.

    Progress summary

    The progress summary page helps you navigate the exam and move between questions
    easily. Everyone uses different exam techniques – some people prefer to answer exam
    questions in order, others prefer to start with whatever question relates to the topic/s they
    are most comfortable with and complete questions out of sequence. Adopt an approach that
    suits you best and use the progress summary to do so. To access the progress summary page,
    click on the blue grid in the toolbar as shown below.

    How to use the progress summary


    You can flag questions you wish to return to later. The ‘Flag’ button is located on the left of
    the ‘Next’ button at the bottom right of the screen, as shown below.

    During the exam, you can access the progress summary at any time. In the progress summary,
    you can see the number of questions you have answered (dark grey box), the number of
    questions you have not answered (light grey box) and the number of questions you have
    flagged. You can also click on a question number to go directly to that specific question.
    Here is an example of a progress summary:

    You can see from this example that:


    • questions 1, 2, 3, and 4 have been answered
    • question 3 is answered but flagged (e.g. flagged for a re-read of the answer before
    submitting the exam or to complete an outstanding item)
    • question 5 is not answered but flagged (e.g. flagged as a reminder to return to this
    question)
    • questions 6, 7 and 8 are not answered.

    Before you submit your exam


    Please also review the progress summary before you submit your exam to ensure you have
    answered every question. You will be asked the following before you submit your exam.

    Once you click ‘Yes’, which submits your answers, you will be unable to make further changes.

    We wish you the best of luck with your exam.
