Online timer for 134 minutes
If you are supervising a regulated exam and must simply wait while candidates work, a countdown of one hundred and thirty-four minutes marks the full session without repeated clock checks. It suits an Australian exam room where the published conditions set a fixed working period and the finish must be announced consistently.
During the sitting, closing the tab or browser may interrupt the visible countdown or prevent the alert from being heard. Leave the page open on the supervising device, keep it powered, and avoid letting the screen or browser enter a suspended state. A separate note of the scheduled finish time also gives the invigilator a reference if the device restarts.
While the room is quiet, use natural checkpoints tied to supervision rather than watching the changing figures. Scan desks, check that permitted materials remain appropriate, note any candidate who leaves temporarily, and compare the room clock with the written finish time at intervals. These small duties divide a little over two hours into manageable stretches while keeping attention on exam conditions.
Common questions
Can an Australian exam run longer or shorter than the stated duration?
Yes, the authorised exam conditions may include reading time, approved rest breaks, or extra working time for an individual candidate. The published instructions and directions from the exam coordinator determine the actual finish.
What happens if every candidate finishes before the countdown ends?
Follow the exam rules on early departure, as some sittings require candidates to remain seated for a specified period. If departure is permitted, record the finish and stop supervising only after all required papers have been secured.
