Study.com and ProctorU Questions
#1
I understand that Study.com and many similar sites use ProctorU to provide virtual proctoring. What's the "pain in the butt" factor when dealing with ProctorU? I have looked online a bit, but I keep getting conflicting information.

My questions are:
  • I don't happen to own a Windows box, can I run a Windows virtual machine and get protracted or is that problematic? 
  • How "sterile" do you have to keep the testing environment you're working from? I anticipate testing from my home office which is full of tech and shelved books. Is that likely to be a problem?
  • I hear they want to get a look around the room (with a mirror?) through your webcam. What's the purpose of that? 
  • If I get up from my desk to step out to the restroom and return in short order is that somehow against the rules?
