Taking a Module Test

How to start a topic-specific practice test from Modules.

Step-by-Step

Open Modules — Sidebar "Modules" or Dashboard "Module Tests" tile.

Pick your subject — Dropdown at top (defaults to your first enrolled subject). Search bar filters units.

Click "View" on a unit — Opens Module Config Modal.

Configure the test:

  • Year range: e.g., 2020–2024 (must have questions in range)
  • Duration: 10–120 min (default 30)
  • Sounds: Bell at end, Vibrate every 1.5 min/page
Click "Start Test"

Questions load — "Preparing Your Test" screen fetches questions for the unit/year range.

Timer starts — 10 questions per page.

During the Test

Timer

  • Counts down from your chosen duration
  • No auto-submit — at 0:00, timer stops, bell plays (if enabled), you must click Submit
  • Bell at end (toggleable)
  • Vibration every 1.5 min per page (toggleable) — helps pace yourself

Answering

  • In-Paper mode only (no Answer Sheet)
  • Click option A–E on each question
  • Selected answer highlighted blue
  • Change anytime before submit
  • Sidebar page numbers (1–N) — click to jump
  • Bottom Prev/Next buttons
  • Smooth scroll to top (next) or bottom (prev)

Sound/Vibration Settings

Open Settings (gear icon) → "Sounds" submenu:

  • Enable Sounds — master toggle
  • Bell at timer end — plays when timer hits 0
  • Vibrate at 1.5min/page — device vibration (mobile) or audio beep (desktop)
  • Test Vibrate button to preview

Vibration uses the browser Vibration API. Works on Chrome/Android; Safari/iOS may play a beep instead.

Submitting

  1. Click Submit (sidebar/top bar)
  2. Confirm dialog shows unanswered count
  3. Click Submit again
  4. You're scored right away:
    • Score %
    • Correct/Total
    • Per-question time (GREEN under 60s, BLUE 60–120s, RED over 120s)
    • Time dots per question
  5. Activity logged → Dashboard "Recent Activity"
  6. You're taken straight to the review page.

Unlike Exam Center, time expiry does NOT auto-submit. You must click Submit. If you walk away at 0:00, your answers stay unsubmitted.

Re-taking

From review page or Dashboard/Backpack → "Retake" button → new session with same config.
