If your screen settings meet the minimum resolution settings but scale settings are set above 100% it is likely that the exam content will not render properly on-screen, causing a less than desirable experience during delivery of your CompTIA exam.

Scale settings should be set to 100% (for users running Windows) or default (for Mac users). In addition to meeting system test requirements for minimum screen resolution, be sure to review and confirm your display settings for scaling, prior to checking in and launching your exam. You will also need an ID and phone (which must be set out of arm’s reach after check-in.) To prepare your exam workspace move all books and writing objects out of arm’s reach, unplug additional monitors and computers, and clear your walls of any writing (e.g., on whiteboards). You will be prompted to take photos of yourself and your exam workspace. The system test will take 5 to 10 minutes to complete.
