You have the option to take an open book exam, including hints, references, and answers, a closed book exam, or the timed MasterExam simulation.
When you launch MasterExam, a digital clock display will appear in the lower right-hand corner of your screen. The clock will continue to count down to zero unless you choose to end the exam before the time expires.
