Is wearing a face mask required during the test?

* Students from medium- and high-risk areas as well as all test personnel will be required to wear masks throughout the duration of the tests.

* Students from low-risk regions should wear masks before they enter the test centers and they can decide whether to wear them during the exam.

* Those attending the exam in quarantine test rooms must wear face masks throughout the duration of the test no matter whether they are from low-, medium- or high-risk areas.
