Laptop Issues
Laptop Fails Before an Examination
Go to the Pharmacy IT Help Desk as soon as possible to resolve the issue before the examination.
IT staff may be able to help you diagnose and resolve the issue with your laptop. If there is not enough time do so before an examination, they may be able to issue a checkout laptop for the examination.
NOTE: There are a limited number of checkout laptops and they are not intended for routine use. Students must make the necessary updates to their laptops or procure a new laptop promptly to ensure they have a functioning device for examinations.
Laptop Fails During an Examination (restart is unsuccessful)
If your device stops working during an examination and a restart does not resolve the issue:
- The proctor will dismiss you from the examination room.
- Contact the course coordinator to schedule a makeup examination.
- Take your device to the Pharmacy IT Help Desk for troubleshooting.
Note: If the Help Desk resolves your issue while the exam is in session, you will still need to have your examination rescheduled. You should not re-enter the examination room.
Laptop Freezes During Examination
- Alert a proctor
- Restart your laptop
- Close all open programs, including your antivirus
- Open Examplify
- Enter Resume Code if prompted (provided by Proctor)
- Finish the examination
- Go to the Pharmacy IT Help Desk after the examination to ensure your laptop is ready for the next exam.
NOTE: You will not lose your work if you need to restart your laptop. Examplify saves your progress directly onto your laptop at frequent intervals.
