authorized by the examiner(s) — (electronic devices other than those authorized by the examiner(s) must be completely powered down if present at place of writing).
6. Examination candidates must not destroy or damage any examination material, must hand in all examination papers, and must not take anyexamination material from the examination room without permission of the examiner or invigilator.
7. Notwithstanding the above, for any mode of examination that does not fall into the traditional, paper-based method, examination candidates shalladhere to any special rules for conduct as established and articulated by the examiner.
8. Examination candidates must follow any additional examination rules or directions communicated by the examiner(s) or invigilator(s).
