How can i check if my laptop is compatible for the exam ?

It is a Lenovo Think Pad T480. I'm pretty sure it is compatible, but if there's a way to check please let me know how. 

I have tried 3 times, but same result every time. I changed the USB as well but still the same. 

I cannot reach login screen. As soon as i select the USB drive to boot from, it refreshes the screen and the same boot menu appears again.

The details for remote exams are here : https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/setting-your-red-hat-remote-exam-things-you-need-do-first

You must have received an email from exam center for botting the USB. 
Remove everything from the USB.
Then start the procedure again and give it a try.

Hello,

You must receive the exam confirmation email at your registered email address.

The subject of the email says "Your Red Hat Individual Exam Reservation Has Been Confirmed"

However, Sharing the remote exam preparation e-book link which has steps to follow and the ISO to download.

You could also go through the following video link which helps you set up the Remote Exam Environment in a stepwise manner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX3VMIAuPzg

Hope it helps!

Hi,

This may be compatibility issue related to your computer security settings in BIOS, namely Secure Boot. In some systems "Secure Boot" is enabled by default, you can try another version of ISO (old ISO) or find another system in which secure boot is disabled.

I tried many times and then I found the same solution.

Disabling secure boot solved the issue.

If you read the pdf manual, page 3, the first system requirement:
"Computer: You will need a computer with a single active monitor. Red Hat supports many Intel-compatible X86_64-bit architecture computers"
Apple M1 CPU has ARM architecture, not x86 as required. So it is obvious it not matching the requirements so it cannot work.
