FL Landscape exam-day guide

FL Landscape · Prepare for the day ahead.

Your checklist

Government-issued photo ID

Bring the original, unexpired ID (passport, driver's license, or national ID) that matches the name on your registration. Confirm with the provider which ID types are accepted and whether a secondary ID is required.

Confirmation or admission letter

Print or save the appointment confirmation showing your test date, time, and location (or online proctoring link). Some centers ask for it at check-in; confirm with the provider whether a printed copy is required.

Appointment time and arrival window

Note the exact start time and the recommended arrival time. Arrive early enough to complete check-in and security; confirm with the provider how late arrivals are handled.

Test-center location and route

Check the address, parking, and transit options in advance. For online proctoring, confirm the platform link and system check time.

Permitted items list

Confirm what the provider allows into the testing room (e.g., tissues, water, medication, locker access). Leave prohibited items such as phones, smartwatches, and notes at home or in the provided storage.

Online proctoring system check

If testing remotely, run the provider's equipment and browser check ahead of time and confirm your room meets privacy and desk requirements. Confirm with the provider whether a webcam, microphone, and specific browser are required.

Break and timing plan

Review the number and length of breaks and whether they are timed. Plan hydration and restroom use around them; confirm with the provider whether unscheduled breaks are allowed.

Scoring and result timeline

Know how the exam is scored (scaled score, pass mark, section weighting) and when results are released. Confirm with the provider the exact reporting method and any score-report options.

Accommodations confirmation

If you requested accommodations, carry the approval confirmation and arrive with extra time. Confirm with the provider the check-in procedure for accommodated testing.

Emergency contact and provider phone number

Save the provider's contact number in case of delay, illness, or technical failure. Confirm with the provider the reschedule and no-show policy before test day.

Plan the day

Final 72 hours

Re-read the official candidate handbook or agreement for conduct, ID, and permitted-item rules. Confirm your appointment details and test format. Do a light review of weak areas and one timed practice set, then stop heavy study. Protect sleep and avoid new material.

24 hours before

Prepare your ID, confirmation, and any approved items. Charge devices and, for online testing, run the system check and clear your desk. Check travel time and weather. Set two alarms and go to bed at your normal time.

Morning of the test

Eat a normal meal and hydrate moderately. Leave early with buffer time. At check-in, follow proctor instructions, store prohibited items, and verify your name and appointment. For online testing, start the check-in early and keep the proctor channel open.

During the test

Read each question fully and watch the clock without rushing. Use permitted breaks as scheduled. If a technical issue occurs, pause and notify the proctor immediately rather than troubleshooting alone. Flag uncertain items only if the platform supports review, and confirm the review rules with the provider.

Rules to check

  • Present valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID matching your registration name; confirm with the provider which ID forms are accepted.

  • Do not bring phones, smartwatches, notes, or other unauthorized materials into the testing area; use only the storage the provider designates.

  • Follow all proctor and test-center instructions, including room scans, desk clearance, and identity verification for online testing.

  • Take only scheduled breaks; confirm with the provider whether additional or unscheduled breaks are permitted and how they affect time.

  • Do not communicate with other candidates or share exam content during or after the test; confirm the confidentiality terms in the candidate agreement.

  • Report technical problems or rule questions to the proctor immediately; do not attempt to resolve them independently.

  • Understand the scoring and pass-mark policy before test day; confirm with the provider how results are reported and whether retakes are allowed.

  • Confirm with the provider the policy on late arrival, rescheduling, and no-shows; do not assume a grace period.
