Exams run from December 5th until the 20th this Fall semester. Are you ready? Here’s our three step guide to getting ready.

Know the Regulations
Get your McGill ID handy – you must have it at the exam! It’s a good idea to check through exam regulations before you go. For example, it’s important to have your cellphone turned off and not in your possession during the exam – don’t have it on you or on the desk! It’s your responsibility to be familiar with all of the regulations.
