Booking your exam
Regardless of your choice of invigilator, booking an exam is still a two-step process:
- Book your exam invigilation appointment with your invigilator. Please note you must provide at least 10 days' notice when submitting your exam request.
- Book your exam with 小优视频 through My小优视频. Ensure you select the write date to match the date you have scheduled with the invigilator
The exam must be written within the course contract timeline and the request must be made 10 days before your requested write date. If you do not submit a request 10 days before the course end date, you will need to purchase an extension.
