What are the exam policies at the Illinois PSI testing center?

PSI will only allow wallets and keys into the test center. Coats must stay outside the testing room. A soft locker is provided at each testing site for wallets and keys. Electronic devices of any type, including watches, are permitted in the exam room.

Anyone that accompanied you to the exam cannot wait in the examination center, the building, or the building’s property.

No food or drink is permitted in the examination center. Smoking is not permitted.

As part of the check-in process, all testing candidates will be asked to empty their pockets, lift the ends of their sleeves and the bottoms of their pant legs to ensure any notes or recording devices are not being hidden.

Any candidate found possessing prohibited items in the testing center will have the exam results invalidated and be asked to leave the examination center.

Once you are seated and begin the exam, you may take breaks, but you won’t receive make-up time. Ask the test proctor for permission first.
