  4. For the majority of exams, the settings under this tab should be left at Medium. The Medium profile applies the default settings to the student exam restrictions. A breakdown of each restriction is listed below.

    Browser Tabs: Controls whether test-takers can open other tabs while the exam is active.
    Allow copy text and image: Controls whether test-takers can copy and paste information while the exam is active. For exams that allow the use of other applications (e.g. Excel) this option should be set to “Allowed”.
    Window sized allowed: Controls whether test-takers can change the size of the exam browser window on the screen. For exams that allow the use of other applications (e.g. Excel) this option should be set to “Resized”.
    Application lost focus: Controls whether the active exam window can go out of focus. If restricted, students cannot interact with other applications during the test. If allowed, other applications can be launched and brought to the foreground. For exams that allow the use of other applications (e.g. Excel) this option should be set to “Allowed”.

  5. Below the restriction settings, identify which test-aids are permitted for use during the test. By default, no resources are permitted.

  6. When finished, click the Save button on the bottom right-hand side of the page to save any changes made to both the quiz and ProctorU settings.
