Here's a quick summary of the key points for students preparing for an exam: 

✅ Before the Exam 

  • Check your exam location (see campus map if on-campus exam; make sure you log in to your personalised timetable for exact location details and further important information).
  • Visit the Exams webpage for info on:
    • Rules & procedures
    • Materials allowed
    • Photo ID requirements

🧾 ID & Attendance 

  • Bring photo ID: MQ Campus Card is preferred. If using a digital licence, be ready to show it to the supervisor.
  • Know your student ID number: You’ll need to write it on your exam materials and attendance form. Tip: Memorise it beforehand especially if you are not using MQ Campus Card as ID. 

✏️ Exam Materials 

  • Bring a pencil for multiple-choice sections—pens can’t be easily read by the auto-marking machine. No pencils provided in the room.
  • Check your unit's iLearn page (or with your Unit Convenor) if you are permitted to bring any materials such as pre-prepared notes, whether you will need a calculator for your exam, etc.

⏱️ Reading & Writing Time 

  • Reading time: No writing allowed—not even personal details.
  • Writing time: First thing to do is fill out your yellow attendance form and personal details on all exam materials.
  • No extra time will be given after the exam ends to complete forms or write your details.

📝 Exam Day Reminders

  • 📦 Personal Items: Place all personal belongings (e.g. wallets, phones, laptops, tablets) under your desk for the duration of the exam. All electronic devices must be switched off.
  • ⌚ Watches: Remove your watch and place it on top of your desk, clearly visible to supervisors. Ensure any alarms or notifications are turned off.
  • 📱 Mobile Phones: If a phone is found on your person (e.g. in your pocket) during the exam, it may be considered a breach of exam rules and could be reported. Please switch off your phone and place it under your desk before the exam begins.
