(NAR) VOL. 15 NOS. 3-4 / JULY - SEPTEMBER 2004
All examinees should be properly instructed to be precise and cautious in the selection of their answers and should be properly informed about the correct manner of transcribing their answers to the answer sheet. The circle that corresponds to the correct answer should be properly darkened to enable the correction machine, Optical Mark Reader (OMR) to read accurately the answer sheets.
All examinees should be informed that erasures, i.e. applications of correction fluid and the like are not allowed and strictly prohibited because these are not recognized and validated by the OMR and, may be construed as tampering of answer sheets. Licensing rules for Outright Rejects provide that tampering in any form shall cause an outright rejection of the application.
