A stable internet connection is mandatory.
No movement rule: Candidates must keep the webcam on and their face clearly visible throughout the test.
Facial recognition: The system captures your face at the start. If you move out of the camera's frame or if another face appears in the background, the AI flags the session for automatic disqualification.
Eye movement: Excessive looking away from the screen (looking down at notes or to the side) will be flagged as suspicious behaviour.
Quiet environment: Your microphone stays on. background noise, talking, or whispering can be picked up by the proctoring software and lead to a "Malpractice flag".
Solitude: You must be alone in the room. If the AI detects a second person, even for a second, the exam may be terminated.
No dual screens: You cannot have a second monitor connected to your laptop.
No screen Sharing: Software like TeamViewer, AnyDesk, or Zoom must be closed.

Calculators: Physical calculators are usually not allowed. An on screen calculator is typically provided within the testing interface.
Professionalism: Even though you are at home, UNILAG expects candidates to be decently dressed.
Lighting: The room must be well lit. If the room is too dark for the camera to see your face clearly, the system will not let you start the test.
Punctuality: You are given a specific time slot. If you try to log in outside your scheduled time, the portal will be locked, so take note.
Re logging: If your internet fails, you are usually allowed to log back in, but your time continues to count down. The system saves your progress automatically.
