How to Enable Unsigned Candidates (without An Account) to Take A Group Exam (Account Login Required)?

OnlineExamMaker allows teachers assign an exam to a specific group to assess particular students. You can easily create a group assignment and then assign the exam to that group, allowing only those students within the group to access and submit the exam.

In OnlineExamMaker, exam organizers can upload candidate accounts in bulk via Excel to student management system, and divide them into groups for group testing. However, if a candidate don't have an account, you can ask the student to take a group exam (account login assessment) too.

You can achieve this goal in 4 steps:

Step 1: Create a group for signup form

Step 2: Create an exam and assign it to the group

Step 3: Create a signup form and assign it to the group

Step 4: Set signup form redirect link

Step 1: Create a group for signup form

In this step, you can create a new student group in OnlineExamMaker at first. Just go to "Students" -> "All Students", then click "Add new category" icon to create a new group.

Step 2: Create an exam for group testing

In the "General settings" -> "Entering Exam", select "Account login exam", and assign the exam to the group that created in the step 1.

Step 3: Create a signup form and assign it to the group

In step 3, you are required to create a signup form, and assign the signup form to the the group that you created in the step 1.

After you configure the basic information of the form, you will go to the section of "Signup Setting". In this place, you can assign the signup form to the group that created in the step 1. After you save this settings, all the registers create an account via this signup form will be added to this group.

Step 4: Set signup form redirect link

After you assign the signup form to the group, you should set the redirect link of the signup form to the exam link that you created in step 2. (You can copy the exam link by clicking the exam title in exam management page)

This step is very important if you want the registers to take a group exam. If the redirect link setting is saved, after a candidate submit the signup form, he will go to the exam link in seconds.
