Ylearn don’t’s
If your device is experiencing problem, do not login immediately from another device. Opening one Ylearn account from more than one device will get you blocked. Log out from the first, only then try logging in from the second.
After you start the test, do not exit Ylearn and go to another app. This will cause your screen to be locked out - and you will be asked to write your reason why you are locked out in order to be able to go back to the exam screen. This reason needs to be of a minimum 8 characters. We will review this, and if we feel we have a valid ground, we will disqualify you.
