Built for the internet and computers your candidates really have.
A lot of exam software is designed for a fast office connection and a new laptop. Many candidates sit their exams on mobile data, on an older machine, somewhere the power can go. ExamLense was built for that from the start.
Connection dropped at 10:42
Like a car built for our roads.
A car that only works on a smooth motorway is no use on a road with potholes. You want one built for the roads people actually drive on.
ExamLense is built for the connections people actually have. When the network drops, nothing is lost. When a laptop is old, the heavy work is done carefully. When a campus network blocks unfamiliar websites, the exam still loads, because everything comes from our own servers.
What we do about it.
- 01
Less has to travel
Routine checks run on the candidate’s own computer, and pictures are only sent when something has changed. Lite asks the least of a connection.
- 02
Nothing depends on outside websites
Everything the exam needs comes from our own servers, so a campus network that blocks an unfamiliar site cannot break it halfway through.
What it means for you.
-
Your examinations office
Fewer failed sittings, fewer resits, and fewer phone calls on exam day.
-
Your candidates
A practice check before exam day to test their camera, microphone and connection, and plain help at every step on the day.
-
Reviewers
Interruptions are recorded as interruptions, so a candidate with a poor connection is not mistaken for one who was cheating.
- Yes. A check page tests the browser, the camera, the microphone, screen sharing and the connection, and explains how to fix anything that fails.
- Yes. Lite asks the least of a connection, and on every level only pictures that have changed are sent.
- The exam screens are available in English and French, and more languages can be added.
Words you may hear.
- Bandwidth
- How much a connection can carry at once. Mobile data often carries less.
- Grace period
- The time a candidate has to reconnect after a dropped connection.
- On-device checks
- Checks done by the candidate’s own computer, so less has to be sent.
