Examplify (ExamSoft) is the secure exam application Caruso Law uses for many essay and multiple-choice exams. Most students type some or all exams in it.
Get started
- Install from the Caruso Law portal: https://ei.examsoft.com/GKWeb/login/pepperdinelaw (also reachable via examsoft.com/pepperdinelaw). Step-by-step instructions: Download and register Examplify (Caruso Law).


- Sign in and accept the current academic-year agreement (returning students often must re-register each year).

- Verify system requirements and Examplify version (see ExamSoft’s minimum system requirements); avoid unsupported OS upgrades right before exams.
- Download exams when notified and take a mock exam on the same laptop you will use on exam day.
