Welcome Class of 2029!
You have been added to ExamSoft and will receive an email from them with your log in information as well as information for installing the program. Please check your junk/spam folders if you don't see it in your inbox. Feel free to change your password once you log in.
Please make sure your ExamSoft and Examplify are up to date, as well as your laptops. On Monday, Aug. 18, 2025, I will release a copy of the practice exam for you to use. The password is welcome2029. This exam is not worth marks but is MANDATORY to complete. The questions will test your knowledge of ExamSoft, Examplify, and UGME policies.
I have attached several documents for you to read.
Exams for the upcoming 2025-2026 academic year will be on campus. Exams for the Fall term have been uploaded to Entrada with the room numbers and instructions.
Please review the Exam Conduct policy before your first exam. Highlights of this policy include:
* Leave belongings in your locker * Bags are not allowed in the exam room - you can leave them outside but at your own risk. We will not watch them. Best to leave them in your lockers. Only exception is for approved medical devices that must stay on your person. * Cellphones are not allowed in the exam room - leave them in your lockers. If you are found with your cellphone in the exam sitting area, you may receive a zero on your exam. * Water is the only liquid allowed in the exam room and must be in a clear bottle. If it is a store-bought bottle, the label must be removed. * Food is not allowed. If you must eat during the exam, you may ask to leave your seat to retrieve food from your locker and consume it outside the exam room. You are not given extra time for this. You will be escorted during this time. The only exception is if you have an approved accommodation for food (ex. Diabetic). * You may bring a pen/pencil and non-scientific calculator to the exam. You will be provided with scrap paper that must be returned to the invigilators at the end of the exam. * Religious headgear can be worn during exams. Other head/ear coverings (hats/toques/hoods/etc.) are not permitted. * If it is cold and you want to wear a jacket or sweater/hoodie with pockets, be aware that invigilators will ask you to turn out your pockets to make sure there is nothing in them. * You are required to stay in the exam room for a minimum of 30 minutes due to the exam late arrival period. * There is a 30-minute late period for emergency situations only. This is not meant as time for last minute studying. Please be mindful of other students if you need to enter late and keep distraction to a minimum. * It is advised to show up at least 15 minutes before the exam starts to give yourself time to sign in and get settled. For the first exam - please give yourselves more time! At least 30-45 minutes. * You will not be given extra time if you start late. * The only time we will give extra time is if you run into technical problems. * Bathroom breaks are allowed - please let an invigilator know and you will be escorted to the bathroom. The invigilator will wait outside for you and then escort you back to the exam room.
If you require accommodations for exams, please contact Student Accessibility Services. You must be approved for accommodations in order to receive them. If you do not get approved accommodations in time, there is no guarantee that you will have accommodations for that exam. They have their own guidelines that you should familiarize yourself with. If you are not approved in time, you will have to write with the rest of the class at regular time.
