NCEA & Scholarship Exam Day Tips

MBC —

With exams coming up we have prepared some tips for you below.

  • Have your admission slip printed and ready to show at each exam.

  • For digital exams, make sure you know your Learner Login and Password.

  • Ensure your device is fully charged and bring your charger.

  • Make sure you have all necessary equipment - pens, highlighters, calculators etc.

  • Bring water in a clear drink bottle with no label.

  • Leave your watch at home, in your school bag or in your emergency pack.

  • An emergency pack containing keys, phone (turned off), money, power bank, bus pass and medicine can be stored in a clear sealable bag. This bag stays under your chair during an exam.

  • Arrive 20-30 minutes before the start of your exam.

  • Check the whiteboard in the quad to see which exam room you are in.

  • Wait quietly outside your exam room, ready to enter in Exam Code order.

  • Ask for help before your exam begins - it's easier to deal with an issue before the exam starts!
