When administering a math admission test online, maintaining a cheating-free testing environment becomes even more challenging.
In this digital setting, it's essential to authenticate student identities, prevent fraud, and protect test content.
These measures ensure fairness, maintain the educational institution's credibility, and uphold the test's academic integrity. OMPT tests are safely proctored to guarantee that nobody has an unfair advantage.
Although proctoring can feel scary for some students, this solution assures all applicants have the same opportunities and can be used ethically and securely.
How can we guarantee academic integrity while adopting a privacy-first approach?
We combine state-of-the-art online proctoring and human involvement.
OMPT partners with ProctorU to proctor our admission tests. ProctorU uses a multi-layered approach to online proctoring. Live proctors are augmented by AI that helps flag suspicious activity. The whole process is overseen by interventionists who routinely audit live sessions and are specifically trained to deal with potential integrity breaches.
Test takers will be asked to show their ID and room before the test starts and are monitored by their webcam and microphone during the entire test. Screen activities are also recorded. These recordings are automatically checked for fraud through an algorithm and manually within 24 hours. ProctorU uses a self-developed Guardian browser that Test Takers are required to temporarily download to their computer. ProctorU can view the Test Taker’s screen and the programs running during your test session. Test Takers can uninstall the Guardian browser once they complete the test appointment.
This program will expire once the test taker closes it.
For students' and institutions' peace of mind, we want to clarify these points about proctoring during our math admission tests:
