      2. During the exam, you may use any material you wish. That is, the exam is "open book".

      3. Communication with other people regarding the exam is strictly prohibited during the exam. Your work must be your own.

      4. You must hand-write your solutions on paper or a computer tablet. Typed solutions are not permitted without advanced permission.

      5. It is your own responsibility to make sure that your submitted answers are readable. Unreadable solutions will not be graded.

      6. Students in need of alternative arrangements, for disability or health reasons, must contact the examination organizer within the registration period (in accordance with the Aalto exam guidelines).

      Submitting the exam:

      1. Create a single PDF document of your exam (tips below).

      2. Upload this PDF to the return box in MyCourses.

      3. If you encounter some very seriously difficulty that can not be resolved then contact the person above.

      4. In case of some complete IT failure or other major unpredictable incident you may email you exam to Harri.Hakula@aalto.fi with the subject line "MS-A0001". You must clearly state the reason why your are submitting by email.

      Tips:

      1. Login to MyCourses before the exam starts, so that you are not affected by possible overloading of the login system.

      2. PDF creation. There are many apps that turn photos from your phone into clear PDFs. Your final document will usually be around 6MB, and hopefully no larger than 20MB. The system will not accept a file larger than 200MB. Sample apps.

        1. PDF-XChange - Fully featured PDF editor. Available at https://download.aalto.fi/

        2. CamScanner (not endorsed by Aalto): https://www.camscanner.com/

        3. Dropbox app: https://help.dropbox.com/installs-integrations/mobile/document-scanning

        4. Google drive app: https://support.google.com/drive/answer/3145835?co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&hl=en&oco=0

        5. Note that uploading a large file can take several minutes, especially if you have a slow network connection.

      3. Technology practice. There is a sample return box on the MyCourses page. It is suggested that you practice creating and uploading a PDF.

      4. After submitting your answers, double-check them by downloading the file from the return box. Make sure that your returned file is complete and contains all pages you want to return.
