The examination will terminate if the time allowed is exceeded. A digital clock indicates the time remaining to
complete the examination.
Only one examination question is presented at a time. The question number appears in the upper right portion
of the screen. Answer choices are identied as A, B, C, or D. The candidate chooses an answer by clicking
the option for the best response. To change an answer, the candidate simply clicks on the alternate option.
The candidate will have the opportunity to review their responses to each section of the case study before
moving to the next section. Once the candidate has continued to the next section of the case study, they will
neither be able to review nor change responses to prior sections. The candidate should therefore be sure
to address any agged or skipped questions before moving on to the next section. There is no limit on the
number of times the candidate may change their answer before moving on to the next section of the case
study. The candidate is encouraged to provide an answer for every examination question completing each
section, as there is no penalty for guessing.
For security reasons, no unscheduled breaks will be permitted during the OnVUE test administration. If a
candidate anticipates needing additional breaks outside of the scheduled 15-minute break, the candidate is
strongly encouraged to test in-person at a testing center.
