This step-by-step guide will show you how to log into Otus and take the assessments that your teachers have assigned to you.
1️⃣ Log into Otus

Check with your teacher to see if you should use one of the sign-on options instead.
2️⃣ Click on Assessments.
➡️ Click directly on the notification that the assessment was assigned to go directly to that assessment.
➡️ Click on the assessment in your To Do list.
3️⃣ Find the Assessment in the List.
Find the assessment and click on it.
➡️ Search for your assessment in the search field.

5️⃣ Click Start at the bottom of the assessment.

7️⃣ Save and exit OR submit.
➡️ Save and Exit
If you have to return to the assessment at a later time, select Save and Exit in the upper-left corner. This will not submit the assessment!
➡️ Submit
While on the last item, clicking the Next arrow will prompt you to submit.
You will get a warning if you try to submit the assessment before every question has been answered.
❗️Important Note❗️
Be sure you've completed the assessment completely before you submit the assessment. Once you submit an assessment, you cannot go back and answer any unanswered questions or adjust any responses. Submitting an assessment locks that assessment, and it will be submitted for grading.
