Be sure to fill in each answer on the Scantron form with a #2 pencil - ink will not work.
You must turn in BOTH the Scantron and the test itself, with your name clearly indicated on BOTH. Be sure
to bubble-in the circles for all of the following on your Scantron: your Name and WIN number, and the
exam FORM (A, B, C, or D listed above; on the Scantron, this goes in the "Form" column located just left
of the "Identifying number"). If any of this information is missing, your test score may be unavailable or
significantly delayed.
You are free to write notes on the test pages, and it is recommended that you mark your answers here for
future reference, or in casc of problems with the Scantron. Tests (but not Scantrons) may be retrieved during
office hours once grading has been completed.
Please present your ID to the instructor or proctor when handing in the test and form.
