Do I Need an Account to Use EduSum?
Yes — a single free account is the key to everything on EduSum, and you sign in before you practice on either tier. The account exists because a scored sitting has to belong to someone: your attempts, your scores, and your reopenable reviews are all recorded against you, and there is no anonymous, ownerless way to sit an exam that gets marked.
Creating the account is free and opens the free Demo straight away; the paid tier is reached later, through a purchase, from that same login. You do not need two accounts or two sign-ins — one identity carries you from the first Demo sample to a full Premium simulation and every result in between.
Why a Marked IT Exam Attaches to One Identity
Think of accountability the way a security exam frames non-repudiation: an action is only meaningful when it is bound to one identity that cannot later disown it. A shared or anonymous login breaks that — if several people sign in as the same nameless user, no score can be trusted to belong to anyone, and no review is reliably yours to return to. Tying every attempt to your own account is what makes your history a true record of your preparation rather than a pile of results with no owner. It is the same reason a real exam registers you before it will score you.
One EduSum Account Across Demo and Premium IT Exams
The same login covers both ways of using the platform. Any logged-in account can take the free Demo, a shorter sample of the real thing, without paying — how you reach it is covered in How Do I Access the Demo Practice Exam? Premium is the paid, full-length simulation, and you unlock it through a one-time purchase made while signed in; the checkout itself needs the account, since the order and its later record are kept under it, as How Do I Purchase a Premium Practice Exam? sets out. Either way, the account comes first and the practice follows.
So one free account is all it takes, and you need it before either tier: it is the owner your scored IT and security exam attempts are recorded against, the same login for the Demo you try today and any Premium you buy later.
