titleI can’t find my exam on the ProctorU website.

If you’re taking a Review+ exam, do not look for the test on ProctorU’s website. Follow the steps for installing the Review+ extension, then start the exam in Blackboard like a normal assignment.

Some courses at Boise State use Live+, a different service from ProctorU which requires tests to be listed on their the site for scheduling purposes. Since Review+ exams are administered without scheduling, they will not show up in any searches on the ProctorU website.
