Test and Exam Scanning
All "bubble sheet" (Scantron/Opscan/OMR) scanning is performed at Quality Assurance (completed bubble sheets must be returned to the QA window with a scanning request form; exception: School of Medicine instructors may return forms to the Office of Medical Education). Tests are scored with Scan&Score, a secure Web-based system, which allows online access to test results and the owner of the test, via online tools, can modify the answer key, view student grades, sort and create subsets of results, view exam statistics, and save the data securely for active retrieval for up to 2 years.
Learn more about Scan&Score, including how to sign up for access, on the Scan&Score website.
