Yes, you can leave the exam after starting it — but the timer will continue running. If you don’t complete the exam within the allocated time, it will be marked as incomplete, and the attempt will still count.
What happens if I leave the exam?
The timer does not pause
Once the exam starts, the countdown continues even if you close the window or leave your computer.Incomplete exams are auto-submitted
If you run out of time, your answers will be automatically submitted, and your attempt will be recorded.You cannot resume later
If you close or exit the exam, you won’t be able to return to the same session. You’ll need to wait until your next available attempt.
Best practices before starting the exam
To ensure a smooth experience:
Use a stable internet connection to avoid disruptions
