Introduction1.1 Purposey The purpose of on-line Exam system is to take online

test in an efficient manner and no time wasting for checking the paper. The main objective of on-line test software is to efficiently evaluate the candidate thoroughly through a fully automated system that not only saves lot of time but also gives fast results. y For students they give papers according to their convenience and time and there is no need of using extra thing like paper, pen etc. The questions will be objective type instead of elaborative.

1.2 Scopey Scope of this project is very broad in terms of other manually taking

exams.

y Few of them are:y Online Examination System can be used by Educational Institutes like

Schools, Colleges, and Private Institutes to conduct logic tests of their students on a regular basis. location doesn t matter). the test.

y Can be used anywhere any time as it is a web based application (user y No restriction that examiner has to be present when the candidate takes y The system handles all the operations and generates reports as soon as

the test is completed which saves the precious time of faculties spent on reviewing answer sheets.

1.3 Problem DomainIn the present system online exam is conducted manually . All the students have to appear in the test centre have to mark each and every question manually and then submit the answer sheet to the invigilator. In conducting the exam in this way it strictly requires that there should be one or two invigilator to be present in the examination hall depending on the strength of the students in order to conduct the exam accurately. Also in this method there are chances of losing or misplacing of student s respective answer sheets due to lack of attention of the invigilator. Thus there are chances that the result of the student might differ from his original capability. The whole process of assigning test and evaluating their scores after the test, was done manually till date. Processing the test paper i.e. checking and distributing respective scores used to take time when this kind of software was not installed.

y 1.4 Proposed SolutionThis project helps in removing all this problems as stated above by providing the facility of conducting the whole exam on-line. In this method of conducting the exam although the student is required to come to the test centre but then he will be able to conduct his own exam or paper. In this method the instructions and rules which are required to follow are available on the computer, the candidate can read it and follow it accordingly, no instructions by the invigilator are required. In the manual method some student get some extra time even after the whole time duration is over because the invigilator has to collect the answer sheet from each and every student so this method does not proves to be an efficient one. However this automated method has a TIMER which will automatically stops after the time period is over and thus proves to fair enough with respect to each and every student. Also in this method the student answer sheet will be submitted with safety and security to the database and process of evaluating scores is performed by the software automatically. Thus in this approach there are no chances of tampering or misplacing the answer sheet of the students, hence this method is more secure one as compared to manual method of conducting the exam.
