How to use the Student Portal

Set up your exam browser and sign in — step by step for your device.

Seeing this page? You need Safe Exam Browser

If you open the portal in a normal browser (Safari, Chrome…), you'll see the “Open this portal in Safe Exam Browser” page below. That's not an error — for security, exams and their materials only open inside Safe Exam Browser (SEB). The steps on this page get you set up; once SEB is installed and configured you won't see it again.

Open the App Store

On your iPhone or iPad, open the App Store — the blue icon with the white “A” on your home screen.

Install SEB

In the App Store, search for “Safe Exam Browser” and install the SafeExamBrowser app (“Secure Web-Based E-Assessment”, by ETH Zurich) — tap Get and let the download finish. Don't open it yet; the next step sets it up first.

Download the exam configuration

Back in Safari, download the PrepDoctors configuration file — it lands in your Downloads in the Files app. The next step opens it.

Download the configuration (.seb)

Open the downloaded file and sign in

Open the Files app, go to Downloads (or Recents) and tap the downloaded .seb file. It launches Safe Exam Browser, applies the PrepDoctors configuration and takes you straight to the Student Portal — sign in with your email address or Student ID.

To leave Safe Exam Browser, tap its Quit button. SEB asks for a quit password — type:

exit

and confirm. Your iPhone or iPad is back to normal.

Questions? After signing in you'll find answers in the Help & FAQ, or contact the PrepDoctors administration team.
