Explanation: a virtual machine, means another person, out of the view of the proctor, is accessing the same computer the student is being proctored through.

When you use proctoring makes the issues stated not relevant.

Quote from Examity庐:

• Our proctors are vigilant about looking for any other applications that are active on the student鈥檚 computer, and we would always ask the student to close a virtual machine. We would red flag and report a session if we suspected the student was using a virtual machine.

Instructors can choose to be proactive by including the following in the notes to the proctor section:

"Proctor will ask the student to open their task manager prior to beginning their exam."

The Examity proctors, or any other proctors have no clue the students are allowed extra attempts unless you specifically add those instructions.

You will see the place to write these instructions when , or
Understand, the students will be charged for each time they schedule the new appointment depending on how you setup the instructions.

• If you allow the 3 attempts within the 2 hours duration you set for the test, the students won't be charged. But you must write in the instructions, "Students are allowed 3 attempts during the 2 hour duration of time." in the Special instructions. (2 hour duration is only an example in this case)
• If you write "Students are allowed 3 separate attempts, each allowed 2 hours for attempt." This requires students to reschedule and be charged for the new appointment. You would also be required to write Graham Jones (gjones@examity.com) our Examity admin, to let him know of this exception.
  Regardless, when students schedule within 24 hours of the test, they are charged an extra $5 for "On-demand" scheduling.
