        abstract = {Examination management in educational institutions often suffers from issues such as manual errors, impersonation, delays, and lack of transparency. Traditional methods of student verification and room allocation are inefficient and prone to security risks. This paper proposes an IoT-based smart examination room guidance system that integrates dual authentication using RFID and fingerprint biometrics with real-time communication through an ESP32 microcontroller. The system verifies student identity by combining RFID card scanning with fingerprint recognition to ensure secure and accurate authentication. Upon successful verification, examination room details are displayed on an LCD interface and simultaneously transmitted to the student via a Telegram message alert using a cloud-based API. The proposed system reduces manual intervention, minimizes impersonation, and enhances operational efficiency in examination processes. Experimental implementation demonstrates improved reliability, faster response time, and higher security compared to conventional methods. The system is cost-effective, scalable, and suitable for deployment in academic institutions aiming to achieve secure and automated examination management.},
