    IF light goes and then comes back after 15 min so can I write exam in that case as the timer continues where it was left before light had gone. Will I get sufficient time in that case or just 2.45 min or 3 hours full?

    I assume that you intend taking the exam on a computer attached to a battery supply (otherwise the computer would go off as well).

    If the lights do go then inform the proctor immediately using the chatbox. I don’t think that they are able to adjust time time (although I may be wrong) but if they cannot adjust the time then after the exam you should inform the ACCA as it is mitigating circumstances and they will take it into account when deciding on your mark. But it is important that you inform the proctor because he or she will then make a note about it and inform the ACCA of what happened.

    Unless your computer and wifi are both connected to a UPS (universal power supply) which would keep them going for a short while, then you will not be able to tell the proctor and the exam would stop.

    If you are worried that this might happen then you should email the ACCA to ask what you should do. I am afraid that given I do not work for the ACCA I am not sure what happens.
