How is the exam administered?
FINRA Regulation utilizes a computer system called PROCTOR to deliver the exam. The process for taking an exam or training on the PROCTOR system is easy—no previous computer experience is necessary. Before starting your session, an introductory lesson will familiarize you with the PROCTOR system and help you understand how the system operates.
An applicant granted admission to commercial administration of the examination will receive an admission letter with instructions to contact Thomson Prometric and coordinate a date and location for administration of the examination. It is critical that applicants who receive an admission letter carefully review the personal information on the admission letter. The name on the admission letter should be the name given on line 1b of the application form, and will be the name provided to Thomson Prometric for allowing entrance to the examination site. The Internet web site and telephone number for Thomson Prometric will be shown in the admission letter. The admission letter specifies a 90-day time period during which the applicant should coordinate an exam date with Thomson Prometric and take the examination. After this 90-day time period expires, the applicant will no longer be able to schedule to take the examination and must file a new application and all fees.
