Fastest Method & Best Pencil for Filling Out Answer Sheet Bubbles on Exam

I heard that if you fill in all the ovals, and then crunch up the answer paper, and chew it and swallow it… you find yourself in dante’s inferno…

I’m not kidding.

You need to sit down and carefully color in the circle like they taught you in grade school. If you don’t mark it dark enough, make it too dark, color outside of the lines, or don’t fill the circle in completely, the machine will ignore your answer and mark the question wrong.

I bring a different mechanical pencil with B lead. Easy and fast.

Yep, mechanical pencil with 0.7mm lead (not the 0.3mm, which I like, but isn’t really good for exams).
