Overview 

This article will outline how to scan and score tests using the Remark Office OMR software.

Use Case / Overview

The Remark Office OMR (Optical Mark Recognition) software will scan and score tests using the bubble answer sheets that can be downloaded and printed from this article.
The physical test scanner is located at the Service Desk and will have instructions on how to properly scan your test answers at the time of grading.
Instead of getting bubble answer sheets forms from the Service Desk, users can now print their own answer sheets within their own department.

There are 2 styles of answer sheets; 100 answers (single sided) or 300 answers (double sided).
Print the desired answer sheet to give to your students for the test. The duplication of these answer sheets can be performed on any printer located on campus.

Please Note:  When using the 300 question test answer sheet, be sure to print/copy your answer sheets double-sided and set to flip on short side.
A properly printed 300 question answer sheet will look like the following (Click image to enlarge):

Attached to this article are the instructions for getting the test ready to be read by the software. Once you have performed the test with your students you can visit the Service Desk to have your answer sheets graded with the self-service scanning system.

Below is the general instructions after you have perform the test with your students.
