How to be in CONTROL on exam day.
Last week, I discussed a few examples of how to be in control on exam day. This week, I will conclude our discussion on how to stay in control on exam day.
Test Day Essentials. Take your Authorization to Test notification from The IIA, your appointment confirmation letter from Pearson VUE, and at least one valid form of identification with you. If you do not present acceptable identification and the required paperwork, you will not be allowed to take your exam, your registration will be voided, you will forfeit your exam registration fee, and you will be required to re-register and pay for that exam part again in order to sit for it in the future.
Exam Time. Once you have checked in and are ready for the exam, read the exam instructions carefully. View the tutorial to ensure that you are familiar with how to navigate through the exam. Remember, Gleim CIA Review emulates the exam environment, allowing you to concentrate on answering questions and maintaining time management.
Execute Your Game Plan. Answer the 100 questions in chronological order, but flag any questions that you wish to review later. Utilizing the time management system that you practiced during your exam preparation, answer every question and then use your remaining time to carefully review each question you flagged. If you made an obvious mistake, e.g., misread the question, make the correction. Do not, however, begin second-guessing yourself and changing answers.
