Complete a combination with Blackboard assignment Learn.UQ exam (Original)
This guide details the process of completing a combination with Blackboard assignment (end-of-semester, deferred or supplementary) Learn.UQ exam.
The exam consists of two parts:
- Part A: All exam questions will be included in a Blackboard test.
- Part B: A Blackboard test will be used to release the exam question paper and the exam answers file will be submitted to a Blackboard assignment.
Note: If prompted, complete the UQ Authentication process to access your exam. For further information refer to the Multi-factor authentication (MFA) guide.
Note: You are able to complete Part A and Part B of your exam in any order unless your Course Coordinator has specified otherwise.
You will need to start your exam at the time listed on your personal examination timetable. You must start submitting after the exam start time + duration (check your personal exam timetable) + 10 minutes planning time.
Note: It may take up to 15 minutes for your exam to upload and submit.
Late penalties will be applied after exam start time + duration + 10 minutes planning time + 15 minutes submission time unless there is sufficient evidence that you encountered problems with the system and/or process that were beyond your control.
For information on preparing for your Learn.UQ exam, refer to the Preparing for online exam success guide.
Tip: Complete the self-enrol Learn.UQ Practice Exam to become familiar with the exam process and test the set of your device.
