Hi everybody ,
I have uploaded my assignement and I am ready to take the essai exam. I have read somewhere that we are allowed to bring all the documentation we want to take the essay exam? Is is true?

Hi Lydie,

No - this is like any other exam at Prometric: you are not allowed to take anything other than a pen and some blank paper.

At the offices I went to I was not even allowed my own pen and paper - the office provided a plastic wrapped sheet and an erasable pen (so I could just rub off earlier work if I needed more space).

You really shouldnt need any documentation though - you only get 4 questions, and you should find them increadibly easy having already completed your assignment. You will get questions like "did you choose RMI or Sockets, and why?" (this is the only question we allow to be posted here). You cannot really fail the written exam, however you are going to be in trouble if you say you used one protocol in your exam, and your submission uses the other protocol .

Regards, Andrew
