Difficulty launching and taking exam?
Most issues are due to attempting steps out of order; please check what you've done against the step-by-step guide, and refer to the common questions and issues if needed. If issues continue, please contact us at LawHelp@syr.edu.
Common questions and issues
App is asking for face and ID scan for each exam, even though Onboarding is complete
This is expected. The process is the same for each exam, including the Onboarding and each subsequent exam.
App displays "Connecting..." but does not connect
This occurs when the app is launched without first visiting and logging into website.
Close app and follow instructions above from beginning.
Proctortrack website does not allow login or says that account is not found
This occurs when visiting an old URL (which may be saved in your browser) or when attempting to log in at proctortrack.com instead of correct link.
Begin by clicking the link in the first step of instructions above.
Only the Onboarding exam is displayed in the Review Guidelines and Launch App > Go to Test step
This occurs when jumping straight to a saved URL instead of clicking the correct link.
Begin by clicking the link in the first step of instructions above.
Proctortrack displays that the proctoring data upload is at 100%, but the Quit App button does not appear
This can occur when the server does not confirm that the upload is complete.
Please email LawHelp@syr.edu to ask that we confirm successful data upload before closing app.
If the Quit App button does appear in this step, upload is complete.
Was my exam uploaded successfully?
Examplify: If you received a green checkmark image following upload, the process was successful.
Proctortrack: If you receive the message "Uploading Complete" or you receive confirmation from Law IT (if "100%" issue above occurs), the process was successful.
You do not need to separately confirm that an upload was successful – if for any reason an upload was not successful, the exam administration team will contact you to assist.
