Before the exam, proctors discussed announcements, the rules and regulations and processes related to the examination, programs, and the list of students with the Office of Student Academic Affairs. The latter list was also made available in each exam room. The committee and UC staff then divided up into groups to perform their tasks in each building and room.
Students arrived on time, and they were dressed appropriately. All committee members implemented their tasks responsibly. Invigilators also checked and opened the exam-paper packages in front of committee members and the students to demonstrate transparency and accountability.
Committee members and students implemented their tasks responsibly and effectively, and in accordance with standards established by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports. Thereafter, there was a period of up to 25 days for marking test papers and preparing a report on the exam results for submission to the Higher Education Department of the Ministry, a deadline which the University comfortably met.
