Please watch the below video on how to download the exam application onto a Apple Mac machine.

To successfully complete your exam using the EDExams application, your device must comply with our specifications below:

Apple Macbook/iMac

• MacOS 11.3 (Big Sur) or higher 
• Working webcam
• Working microphone

Internet Speed

During your exam, you will be live invigilated by our team of invigilators, which means that your wifi must be strong enough to keep a constant stream with our servers. 

We require at least 3 Mbps for both upload and download speed.

To test your wifi speed, click here.

Devices that cannot be used:

• Mobile Phones 
• iPads/Tablets 
• Computers set in 'S' Mode
• Chromebooks/Notebooks/Thinkpads/Vivobooks/Surface Pro's etc. (these types of computers will still look like a typical laptop, not necessarily a tablet/small PC)
• PC's using more than one monitor

As the EDExams app is designed to lock-down your PC whilst you sit your exam, there are some factors that could prevent you from sitting your exam:

• Security settings on your WIFI (this usually includes work servers)
• Security settings within the computer itself 
• Computers used for work purposes/provided by work/college/schools etc. 
• Mobile hotspots (these cannot guarantee a consistent connection, which may cause your exam to stop midway)
• Remote desktops 
• Admin restrictions 
• High-security anti-virus software. 

If you have any queries or would like help downloading the EDExams app, please contact us as soon as possible before your exam.
