Before you start

• Laptop or desktop with the latest Google Chrome — see supported devices and browsers.
• For proctored coding tests, prepare your webcam and microphone: System Check setup.

Step 1 — Log in

1. Open the exam link from your institute.
2. Enter your username and password (press and hold the eye icon to check the password).
3. Complete the CAPTCHA, accept the terms of use and privacy policy, and click Login.

Login problems? See Candidate login problems and error messages.

Step 2 — Confirm exam details

1. You see the exam name, programming exam name, start and end date, number of questions and total duration. Click Proceed.
2. Check that your name and roll number are correct and click Confirm.

Step 3 — System Check and verification (proctored tests)

• If the test is proctored, complete the System Check. If you already passed it for this exam in the same browser, it is skipped automatically.
• Then complete ID and face verification if your exam uses it.

Step 4 — Read the question

Each coding question has:

• Problem Statement — a detailed description of the task.
• Example — sample input and output.
• Functional Description — details of the function or code you must write.
• Returns — what your code should return after execution.

Step 5 — Write and run your code

1. Choose your programming language (if more than one is allowed) before you start typing.
2. Type your program in the coding area.
3. Click Run under the test cases section. Compile errors are shown — fix them and run again.
4. After the test cases run, each is shown as passed or failed.
5. Use Clear Response only if you want to remove your answer for the question — you are asked to confirm first.

Changing language overwrites your code

In coding exams with AI code evaluation, switching language shows: Your existing code in the selected language will get overwritten, please confirm. If you confirm, the code you typed is replaced and copy-paste is blocked, so pick your language first and stay with it.
