  1. The test will then display and you can start to input your answers,
    Depending on the settings , you may see all the questions on one page, or you may have to view a question before you can see the next one.
    Your progress will be shown at the top of the test e.g ‘7 of 10 questions remaining’ and if it is a timed test how many minutes remain.

 

 

  1. Once you have completed the test you must click on Submit.

Do not use Save and Close to submit your test! Only use Save if you have not finished all your questions and there is enough time for you to return to finish your questions and Submit.

  1. Once you have clicked Submit, you should see a 'Your submission was successful' pop-up message.

    You will also receive an email confirming submission and have the option to Download a copy of your submission receipt.
