The official exam ebook does not state anything about using a USB microphone or headset. So, thank you for clarifying!

Do you have a reference to a spot where it's documented that a separate USB audio device is allowed?

Hi @Tess ,

Proctor Team allows the candidate to use a wired headphone as a workaround  in case of issues with inbuilt mic or Integrated mic with external camera. Hence , it is not specified under system requirements in the E-book.

Different Request en Host ID ofcourse. Rest of the XML I get is the same.

Hello ,

I am having a issue with my laptop internal microphone ,but headset microphone is working fine . In this case can to use my headset right do I need to take any prior approval from support team ?

Thank you.

Hello @Sraone 

You are allowed to use a wired USB headset with an inbuilt mic, however, the headset needs to be kept on the desk throughout the exam. The proctor will communicate via chat and make sure to pass the mic test successfully in the Compatibility check as the proctor will need to listen/monitor your surroundings. 

NOTE : Keep the proctor informed that you have connected a wired USB headset during Onboarding

Do I need to have access to my e-mail during or before the exam?
Because I am taking the exam at home, and don't have access to my work mail.

[Gineesh]

You don’t need to access the emails before or during the exam. But you will
be getting the exam results in your registered email ID.

Note: better keep your certification with your personal email address! What
if you change the company and you won’t be able to access your RHN account
?
