Do your practice exam |

|
|
|
|
Download Office 365 |
|
Many exams require the use of Microsoft Office tools such as Word or Excel to complete the exam on your local device. |
|
|
|
|
Power up |
|
Make sure your laptop is plugged into mains power and fully charged prior to your exam in the case of any power interruptions in your local area. If you lose internet connectivity, consider tethering your device to your mobile phone internet as a backup. |

|
|
Plan how to use your time |
|
Use the additional hour wisely for IT review and try to complete and submit your exam at least 5 minutes before the scheduled end time to avoid any potential upload or submission issues. |
