Walaupun sebenarnya Menteri Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Republik Indonesia Nadiem Makarim sebenarnya memberikan keleluasaan kepada sekolah untuk melaksanakan ujian sekolah secara daring atau online.

Tetapi karena tidak semua siswa memiliki perangkat seperti smartphone, tablet atau laptop, serta jaringan internet yang tidak stabil bahkan tidak ada sinyal, maka banyak sekolah yang tidak memaksakan untuk mengadakan pelaksanaan Ujian Sekolah.
