Exam papers must be downloaded in advance and completed between 12pm - 6pm on the day of the exam. Once your paper has been completed you must scan the document and upload before 6pm.
Candidates should follow this step-by-step process:
Exams are timed, a countdown clock will begin as soon as the candidates click 'START'. You can find how much time you have left in the top right hand corner of the screen.
Candidates will be presented with 50 questions, and are expected to attempt all before submitting. Candidates do not require a Theory resource paper, and will not be expected to upload pictures of worksheets.
Once candidates have answered or viewed each of the 50 questions, in order, they will be able to review and edit answers before submitting their exam.
Candidates who successfully complete their online exam and click submit will receive a result immediately.
Whilst practice papers are free and readily available without logging in, candidates who have applied for an exam will be expected to follow a logging in process. You will be contacted prior to the exam with logging in information.
In order for teachers and candidates to become more familiar with the online theory experience we have created free to access practice papers. These can be accessed by anyone, wether or not you are booked for an upcoming exam. Teachers may wish to use these as a useful learning tool to test their own students, in advance of sitting an upcoming RIAM Exams Theory assessment.
