Can my child take the Proctored Writing Sample from home in Dubai, or is a testing center required?

Home is where the essay happens. No testing center needed, no crossing town in traffic, and definitely no fluorescent lighting. The Proctored Writing Sample is 100% remote and can be taken from anywhere in Dubai, as long as there’s reliable internet, a functioning computer, and a quiet space.

Your child will join a Zoom session with a live proctor who keeps things orderly while your student types away on a secure writing platform. It’s like a mini mission control for young writers, minus the space suit. Just be sure your setup is smooth, the tech is tested, and your child has water, a good chair, and maybe a pep talk or two.
