Attaching Files During Your Test

Attaching your notes and transcript files is similar to attaching a photo to an email. Do the following:
 
  • In RTC, click Attach Notes or Attach Transcript
  • Navigate to the place on your computer where the file is saved and select your file
  • Click Open
 
NOTE: You will have three minutes to attach your notes file (watch the timer). This is plenty of time if you know where your file is. Make sure you are comfortable with finding your files before test day.
 
For realtime tests (CRR, and CRC), you will have five minutes to upload your transcript file. For transcription tests (RPR and RMR) you will have 75 minutes to transcribe and upload your transcript file.
