Hi

I have a question about exam environment. I am planning to take my online exam. My house has just 1 room and there is no desk there. I am planning to take my exam in the kitchen (so I can use the table located there). My kitchen is walled (with a window) and has a door. In my background, there is nothing but a sink and kitchen appliances. No one will be home during my exam. I just wanted to make sure this environment is alright. Can anybody help?

Hi, Although I don't see anything fundamentally wrong in it, the best way would be to check with Pearson. And I am sure that they will tell you that the Proctor is gonna let you know if the setup is ok once you start the exam. Why don't you rent a table and put it in the room?

in any case, please note that the windows must be closed. there was a guy who faced issues with an open/transparent window.

Thanks for your reply

I guess there is not enough space in the room for the desk. my window is transparent, but it has a curtain, which is lace. Do you think that's alright? I have sent an email to Pearson, waiting for their responce.
