[QUOTE="Jane Smith, post: 95260, member: 7481"] Yes, I agree with Nicktim and others above. On the LPC at the moment you do have a choice if you prefer to do the exams in an exam hall (eg you may not have good internet access at home or no quiet place in which to do an exam or might prefer handwriting your exams). BPP have just emailed current LPC students again who opted for in person exam hall exams to give them another chance to switch to proctored digital exams (with hard copy open book materials) if they want due to rise of covid rates in the UK. Those who did the GDL last academic year online need to be aware if they are now on the LPC that the LPC "proctored" exams are different from the PGDL online exams as pointed out above most importantly that you cannot print any materials presented to you on the screen in the exam and you can only refer to hard copy papers in front of you including your own prior notes but NOT look anything up at all during the exam on any electronic device, just the paper materials in front of you. No electronic devices other than your computer in the room, no phones, must have a web cam on etc. I believe you scan the room with your webcam at chest level and then floor level before you start and 5 minutes extra are allowed for that.. If the camera becomes blocked at any time during the exam your assessment is void. I hope that does not mean if your internet briefly cuts out the assessment is void. Just to continue my boring LPC updates......... The property law mock results have apparently been issued on Inspera (see announcement of yesterday on the Announcements section of the Hub) and secondly there is a new 17 Dec notice from BPP on there about the exam procedures lecture which some will have already watched this week (for the Jan 2022 final exams coming up for this half of the course) and which attaches the slides from that lecture. I am not sure if it dealt with our issue - that the internet at home cuts out a few times a day briefly and might well do during the exam for about 1 minute.

BT have tried to sort the fault out at least 4 or 5 times for us and neighbours without complete success over about 2 years so we just live with it.

For brief cut outs it is probably better people are just allowed to reconnected and carry on. I can see soething in 2.11 of one guide that if you are cut out and when relaunching Inspera to continue you are asked for a code it says enter [B]ab1234[/B] and if that does not work email [email]inspera@bpp.com[/email] ASAP.
