Experience with 'Secure' Exam Testing Software?

Durindana writes "My law school has decided using the Exam4 software from Extegrity, thinking it would be a good idea. I disagree; the software can only be used by students on their own laptops, and (of course) Exam4 is mono-platform. Anyone have experience using this software (e.g. security level, reliability) or, hopefully, successfully opposing its use? It strikes me as a hell of a disadvantage to students who'd like an alternative to hand-writing but - for some strange reason - don't own a Windows laptop."

We use this software at my dental school

That's funny, because it looks like you lifted the policy that you quoted from The University of Maryland's Law School Policy. I think it's no coincidence that this is the first link that shows up when you search in Google for exam4 policy. Do not follow the advice of the original poster - it is bogus advice and he is lying. He is most definitely is not in "dental school" and does not use Exam4. He is making up crap like this to get extra karma, which is kind of funny, but he is spreading disinformation and plagairizing posts by others in the process. Read his journal if you don't believe me.
