Do I Need A Separate Webcam/Mic for ProctorU Exam? - SuZQ2 - 08-23-2015

Hi All...

A "I know nothing about computers and need help:o" question for those who have utilized ProctorU...Do I need to purchase a separate webcam/microphone for my 11.6 inch laptop or is the equipment built into my computer satisfactory? I ran the computer/equipment verification test on the ProctorU website and everything checked out OK, but I want to make sure I'm not overlooking the obvious!

Am hoping to test either this week or next - fingers crossed my forays into Torah College, my first non-multiple choice exam, and ProctorU will be successful...Ahhhhh!:willynilly:

Should be fine if you have a webcam built in. The webcam has a built in microphone.

That's what I used, just have a mirror nearby to show them the front of your laptop since you can't move the camera.

Thanks so much - I have family issues that make it necessary for me to be at home, so being able to actually test "at home" will enable me to keep moving toward my graduation goal. Videogamesrock and johnvan - the ProctorU computer info was GREATLY appreciated!! Big Grin
