My program counts off 10% for writing on their tests. I was wondering if anyone else's program follows the same practice.
AlyseB 36 Posts Mar 29, 2013 No, they don't take off points (but you will get chewed out in front of the entire class) lol . They use the same test format for the upcoming class, and it is a really big inconvience for them to have to go back and erase your answers or have to make more copies. I think my program changes test every 2 years.

Mewsin 363 Posts Has 3 years experience. Apr 1, 2013 We're encouraged to write on tests. We were actually given a workshop on test taking and the first step is to write "PIRATE" on the exam. They don't use the same exams each year though so that may be why.
RLtinker, LPN 282 Posts Apr 2, 2013 Pirate? I think I need some explanation on this. But anyway, no we don't get count off, intact it is encouraged. It would be hard for them to use the same tests anyways since every exam has math portion and this is always hand written. It is one of our schools requirements the every test have 10% of the questions be med calculations.
