6. On exam day, students will log into HESI NG and launch their exam as usual. If the app is already downloaded, it will open automatically. If it is not downloaded, the student will be prompted to do so and will follow the same process outlined above.

Note: If the app is opened directly from the iPad home, it will open to the landing page. The app must be accessed via the HESI NG Compatibility Check or exam launch in to display content.
