⚡ Exam Day Interface & Software Behavior Checklist

Candidates preparing for this examination must train under realistic test software parameters to avoid unexpected failure on exam day:

  1. No Auto-Highlighting: The official test software displays the master passage statically. Words will not turn green or red as you type, and your active cursor position is not highlighted. You must maintain visual tracking independently.
  2. Manual Passage Scrolling: As you complete visible lines, the passage does not scroll down automatically. You must manually scroll using the mouse wheel or the downward arrow key on your keyboard.
  3. The 5-Minute Mock Trial Run: Prior to the real evaluation, a short demo session is conducted. Physically test every critical key:
    • Tap Spacebar, Backspace, and Enter repeatedly to detect sticky membranes.
    • Verify both Left Shift and Right Shift keys.
    • If any key requires abnormal pressure or fails to register, raise your hand immediately to request a replacement terminal before the main exam timer begins.
  4. Accuracy Over Unchecked Speed: Because penalization algorithms deduct heavily for uncorrected errors, typing smoothly at a steady pace with 98%+ accuracy yields higher qualifying scores than rushing with frequent typos.
