Mathematical test for the UP FBE Admission

!!!Please, carefully read the document before starting the process!!!

The Mathematics test will be conducted in the Moodle online LMS platform. For registration, see Section 2. Please
notice that a proctoring software, Respondus LockDown Browser (which records your camera, face, voice, or any
other computer activity) is used during the exam; for installation, go to Section 3. Check to have supervisor rights

Once you start the Mathematics test, you will have 90 minutes before it closes automatically. You can freely
navigate between the pages. Questions require you to enter a numeric solution or choose between answer options.
The required level to pass the test is 50.01%. A result of 65% or higher qualifies the applicants to be able to absolve
the Introduction to Quantitative Methods (IQM) course without the need of attending classes once they begin their
studies at our School.

You can use an empty paper and pencil during the exam. Once you do the registration in the system, you need to
show your camera around for the surroundings; please, ensure you already have them on the table.

In case you are not attending the test or the result is below 50,01%, your application must be rejected.
In case you can prove that a technical issue has occurred for reasons beyond your control, based on individual
assessment, you can be granted another opportunity to complete the test with the same settings.
If you are caught cheating, your work will be considered invalid, and the application will be automatically rejected.
