It also sounds wise to download the IEP software in advance (not just the day before the exams)
I think you can then test proctored inspera in advance.
The verbal and typed questions with the recent exams video are useful eg someone asked if you could cut and paste parts of the exam question as you could in the mocks in proctored inspera and the answer was yes but "remember that you cannot use mouse commands and will need to use keyboard shortcuts instead".
Put a sticker near you with the code to put in if you get cut off during the exam.
No apple watches in the exam.
I would suggest people try to clear the room they are in of clutter if they can.
Also if you are cut off and have to contact inspera during the exam you can go to your phone to do so which I presume will not have been left in the same room as you are out of exam conditions then but they say explain what you are doing as you do it eg I am using my phone to email inspera because XYZ technical problem has arisen.
Don't however otherwise leave your seat and get up from the desk. So have papers in reach.
They are trying to help (by encouraging those setting the papers not to have too much scrolling requirements) with the big issue of how much time it takes to scroll up and down compared with an in person exam when all the paper is there in front of you. Open the pdfs on left and right side of page.
The above are just my rough notes - and the video says most queries people have on the day are things people would have read in the Inspera user guide for proctored exams had they read it in advance. Also I think there is a change this time so that your login may be you BPP login and you click on the SSO - single sign on button in inspera to start.
Another question was spell check - apparently Inspera has a US spelling spell check.
I believe about 2 days before the exam you are sent something but may be not login details this time round due to the SSO login I mention above.
Resits are in August . Someone asked a question about a training contract starting by or soon after then and the answer was there were some exams being taken earlier (April?) and may be someone could apply to take them then ie earlier than August for resits which is useful to know is possible. The reason the resits are not down for April however is people will be busy with the Electives by then.
