ap exam shading multiple choice

[narreth]

im doing my ap tests and in shading multiple choice answer sheets i realized that i can still make out the letter a b c d e that i shaded ( even though i fully shaded the bubble with my pencil)

is this something to be concerned about? how sensitive are these machines? the same pencils I used for the SAT I used for this exam ( and it was OK for the sat).

i dunno im probably just freaking out

stressssssss

Nothing to worry about. Good luck.

I have taken 3 of them, 1 last week, and 2 this week, and still have 2 to go, tomorrow and friday. And NO, that will not matter at all. What you should be worried about is if you erased soemthing and you can faintly tell you marked it before, they are very sensitive to marks, so no matter how dark it is, if it's even lightly shaded, it should be fine.

And wouldn't that have been a better question for the proctor, at the time?

yea well i'd nearly run out of time at the point and was just trying to finish it.

anyway my last exam is friday - human geo!

good luck in your exams!

Nah, don't worry about that. The machine will pick it up.
