Your checklist

Admission / appointment confirmation
Carry the printed or electronic confirmation showing your candidate number, exam part/module, date, time, and venue. Confirm with the provider whether a printed copy is mandatory.
Approved calculator
Bring a non-programmable calculator if permitted. Confirm with the provider which calculator models are allowed and whether the venue supplies one.
Stationery
Bring pens/pencils and an eraser if the exam uses paper answer sheets. Confirm with the provider whether stationery is supplied and whether any items are prohibited.
Know the venue and arrival time
Confirm the exact address, building access, and reporting time with the provider, and plan to arrive with buffer time for security and registration.
Review the exam format and permitted materials
Confirm with the provider the number of questions, time allowed, pass mark, and whether any reference documents or regulations extracts are provided or allowed.
Leave prohibited items at home or in storage
Phones, smartwatches, and notes are normally not allowed in the exam room. Confirm with the provider what storage is available and what is banned.
Personal needs planning
Eat and hydrate before arrival; confirm with the provider the policy on water, medication, and access to restrooms during the exam.
Rest and revision plan
Avoid last-minute cramming of new material; focus on consolidating known content and confirming logistics.
Backup travel plan
Identify an alternative route or transport option in case of delays; confirm the provider's policy if you arrive late.
Plan the day
Confirm venue, reporting time, ID requirements, and permitted items with the provider. Re-read the exam regulations and format. Do light revision of weak topics only.
Prepare and pack the checklist items. Check calculator condition and batteries. Print any required confirmation documents.
Do a final light review of key concepts. Confirm travel arrangements and set alarms. Get a full night's sleep; avoid studying new material late.
Eat a normal meal, re-check you have ID and confirmation, arrive at the venue early, and follow registration and security instructions.
Read instructions carefully, note the time allowed, pace yourself, answer easier questions first if strategy allows, and review answers if time permits. Follow invigilator instructions at all times.
Confirm with the provider how and when results are issued and the process for any queries or appeals.

Present valid photo identification matching your application; confirm with the provider which documents are accepted.
Follow all invigilator instructions and exam regulations; confirm with the provider the full conduct rules before the exam.
Do not bring phones, smartwatches, notes, or other unauthorised materials into the exam room; confirm with the provider what is prohibited and what storage is available.
Breaks and restroom access during the exam are normally at the invigilator's discretion; confirm with the provider the specific policy.
Scoring, pass marks, and result notification methods are set by the provider; confirm these details in advance rather than assuming them.
Do not communicate with other candidates during the exam; confirm with the provider the rules on talking and leaving the room.

If you believe there is an error in the exam or a problem with conduct, raise it with the invigilator at the time and confirm the provider's complaints or appeals process afterwards.
