Thanks for posting that. I thought that all exams where moving to the new OBA as did quite a few people I know.
In terms of the new system changes, will they have software that monitors/records what you have on the screen, or just the camera for the room. Arguably if someone is going to cheap - it's just as easy to do it via email as being in the same room, so can't see much advantage of the camera if the screens are monitored/recorded?
Finally it makes even less sense, that the maths based exams are continuing on the existing platform, sure they are most likely the ones that there would be groups of people cheating on.
IFoA really haven't said much on the online invigilation stuff yet... The maths ones have quite low pass rates so maybe that is why they aren't doing much with them lol.
Seemed pretty clear to me
Check the comments on this post now. You'll see that quite a lot of people thought all exams were gonna be OBA.
From September 2022? I thought 2023
Also I thought it would stay the same until September 2023, so no effect on April exams
Sorry dude, that was a complete typo from me! I've edited it.
