*Important notes*
When creating an exam that is to be proctored through ProctorU it is important to select scheduling dates that are appropriate for your exam. Students will be required to schedule an appointment with a live proctor at ProctorU and as such a narrow scheduling window can result in a situation where no live proctors are available during that window.
The exam close date and time that you see on the instructors dashboard is the date and time in which the exam access ends for the student even if they did not answer all of the questions.
