Core Functionalities

Exam Integration

Exam Integration provides a streamlined process that:

• Automates Exam Management: Allows students to schedule, reschedule, or attempt exams.

• Facilitates SSO: Ensures smooth navigation between the Meritto portal and the exam partner platform.

• Enables API Communication: Transfers relevant data (Demographic & Exam Information) between Meritto and exam partners.

Exam Scheduling

Once a student becomes eligible for the exam:

• Demographic Data (DD): Transfers information such as Name, Application Number, and Location.

• Exam Information (EI): Transfers details such as Exam Name, Slot Availability, and Attempt Number.

• Students see the "Book Exam Slot" option on their dashboard.

• Clicking on this option redirects them to the exam portal through SSO, where they can select the desired Date, Time, and/or Venue (for offline exams).

Admit Card Generation

After slot booking:

• The exam partner sends slot-related information (Date, Time, Venue) to Meritto via the Modify Appointment API.

• Students can download the Admit Card with updated slot information from their portal.

Exam Rescheduling

If a student cannot appear for the exam:

• They can reschedule within a defined timeframe (e.g., 72 hours before the scheduled exam).

• Reschedule Option: Visible on the student’s dashboard with configurable rescheduling fees.

• On selecting Reschedule Exam, the student is redirected to the exam portal through SSO to modify the slot.

• Updated slot details are pushed back to Meritto via the Modify Appointment API, reflecting changes on the Admit Card.

Exam Retake

To facilitate multiple attempts:

• You can define:

• Number of Retake Attempts: Number of reattempts permitted.

• Trigger Point: When the retake option becomes available.

• Dynamic Fees: Configurable fees for each attempt.

• Students can see the Exam Retake option on their dashboard.

• Real-time APIs communicate candidate authorization to exam partners, enabling slot booking and retake attempts.

Scorecard Generation

After the exam is attempted:

• The exam partner shares result-related information (such as Marks Obtained and Total Marks) with Meritto via the Result Notification API.

• Students can download the Scorecard reflecting their results from the portal.
