An online exam you can rely on

An exam is not just a quiz: you need to know who takes it, how many times, in how long, and give everyone a fair grade. Mailpro quizzes and exams handle all four: access is reserved for your candidates, time is counted by our servers, grading combines automatic scoring and manual grading, and every candidate receives a personal result.

Quiz or exam: what changes

The same tool, two uses. An exam adds control over access, time and results.

Access

Reserved for your candidates

Reserve the exam for a contact list: candidates give their email, already filled in from their invitation, and their personal code if you use one. Repeated wrong attempts are blocked. Each candidate gets a set number of attempts, and a shared password remains possible for simpler use.

Time

A timer that can’t be bypassed

Time is counted by the server from the click on “Start”: reloading the page or switching devices does not stop it. Candidates are warned before the end, then their answers are submitted automatically. Also set an opening date and time, and shuffle the question order.

Grading

Automatic, and by hand when needed

Choice questions, numbers and short answers grade themselves. Written answers are graded by hand: you award the points, and the candidate’s score is recalculated. The detailed correction can wait until the exam closes.

Scoring and correction →
Result

Every candidate receives their result

A different email goes out depending on whether the candidate passed or not, with a link to their personal result page. The score is saved in their contact record and a “passed” or “failed” tag is applied, for the rest of their journey.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

How do I reserve the exam for my candidates?
Put your candidates in a contact list and reserve the exam for it. Candidates give their email and, if you wish, a personal code stored in their record. After five wrong attempts (adjustable), sign-in is blocked. For simpler use, a shared password is enough.
What happens if a candidate closes the browser?
They resume their attempt by returning to the link, even from another device. The time, however, has kept running: the end of the exam does not move.
Can the timer be bypassed?
No. Time is counted by the server, not by the candidate’s browser. At the end, answers are submitted automatically; an answer sent after the deadline is flagged as late.
Can I stop candidates from retaking the exam?
Yes. For an exam reserved for a list, set the number of attempts per candidate; once reached, the exam is no longer available to them. A duplicate submission is refused.
How do candidates receive their result?
By an email that differs depending on whether they passed or not, with a link to their personal result page. The detailed correction appears there according to your setting: immediately, or only after the exam closes.
Does Mailpro monitor candidates by webcam?
No, Mailpro does not film candidates. It controls access, time and the number of attempts. For a high-stakes exam, have it taken on site, on your organization’s computers.
