    Hey there, I'm professor Foster Provost from NYU Stern. I am ready to conduct your exam today. Am I speaking to [DEMO STUDENT]? Can you please tell me your name and your NET ID?

  2. Caller

    Yeah, can you please speak German?

  3. Examiner

    I can’t conduct the exam in German. We’ll do it in English. Before we start, confirm your name and Net ID for me?
