Scantron Use
In general:
1. For this exam, you are allowed to use a non-programmable and non-graphing calculator that you bring to your
desk. You MAY NOT borrow another persons calculator. You MAY NOT use your cell phone, PDA, or
other non-calculator device as a calculator.
2. use #2 pencil ONLY to fill out Scantron sheet, not a pen or marker
3. when filling in bubble on the scantron, be sure to fill in bubble completely, and only one bubble for each
entry; pay attention to line numbers on the scantron so that you put the answer in the correct spot
4. when you first get the exam, check to make sure you have all pages of the exam and one periodic table. You
should also have one scantron sheet. If you dont have any of these, contact us immediately.
5. we will announce periodically how much time has elapsed/are left
6. if you have a question, ask (if taking the exam at disability services, let your assistant know and they can call
immediately to get an answer to your question)
