What action is required before leaving the testing room during the exam?

• A. Leave quietly without informing anyone.
• B. Obtain permission from the proctor before leaving.
• C. Leave only if you have completed the test.
• D. Leave after the next section.

Answer: (B)

In a supervised exam, movement in and out of the testing room is controlled to maintain test security and proper monitoring. The required action is to obtain permission from the proctor before leaving. This ensures the proctor can verify your identity, account for your absence, and secure any exam materials so nothing unauthorized leaves the room. If you need to step out, raise your hand and wait for the proctor’s instruction. Leaving without permission can be treated as a breach of policy and could affect your exam results.
