Abstract	This research explores the effects of listening to music during exams for engineering college students. Students were given the option to listen to self-selected music while completing exams in three undergraduate engineering courses over four years. It was found that listening to music during an exam had no significant effect on the mean exam scores or completion times. However, when analyzing data from students who had taken exams both with and without music, it was found that these students performed significantly better in the music condition but at par with the mean score. Results indicate that allowing music during exams for students who study with music does not represent an advantage but rather an opportunity for equity in exam-taking environments. (As Provided).
