# Student First Steps

> Check your dashboard, find assigned work, submit safely, and use your results.

## Student first steps

Your Student area helps you see what to do today, complete work, and learn from results your teacher has shared.

## 1. Sign in

Enter the user ID supplied by your school and your password, then select **Login**.

If your account requires a first-time password change, follow the on-screen password rules. Do not reuse a password that another person knows.

## 2. Check your dashboard

Start with:

* Overall progress.
* Tests completed.
* Average score.
* Upcoming tests and homework.
* The **Today** timeline and suggested study action.

Use the subject selector to choose the class and subject shown on the dashboard.

## 3. Open the correct assignment

Open **Tests** or **Homework**, then confirm:

* The title and subject.
* Start time and deadline.
* Question count and total marks.
* Instructions.
* Whether you are starting, continuing, or reviewing an attempt.

<Warning>
  Keep one active attempt open. Do not use multiple tabs or devices for the same test.
</Warning>

## 4. Complete and review every response

The paper may contain typed answers, selected choices, or uploaded handwritten work.

For uploaded work:

* Use bright, even lighting.
* Keep the whole answer inside the image.
* Avoid blur, shadows, and rotated pages.
* Preview every page after upload.

## 5. Submit safely

Visit every question, verify attachments, and select the final submit action once. Keep the page open until Chanakya AI confirms the attempt has ended or the status has changed.

## 6. Learn from the result

A submitted test may still need marking and teacher review before you can see the result.

When your teacher shares the result, review your marks, feedback, and topics to practise. Choose one next step.
