How much do you hate filling out all your info on dantes - avi - 08-20-2006

I just wanted to see if any others feel the same way. Sometimes, especially when I have 2-3 dantes that day I go nuts from filling out all my personal info in those bubbles. Anyone have the same experiance?

Absolutely,

It usually take me between fifteen and twenty minutes per exam to fill out the various forms and the personal information bubbles.

I would love to see them figure out a way to allow us to fill out the information ONE TIME, and then photocopy it and attach it to each subsequent exam.

But I can't complain too much, DANTES has been good to me!
hilarious

When I get to a test I am all antsy to start and I am in no mood to spend 10-15 minutes on bubble filling. So I do the test first. The problem is I want to leave after the test and not fill in bubbles for 15 minutes. In short dante info bubble suck!!!
But it sure beats going to a class and paying for 3 credits.

I wish I could handle taking 2-3 tests in one day. As for me, I fill out the personal bubbles at the end of the exam. That way I can always get the remaining 15 questions right and end on a high note, name, adddress... too bad they don't count toward the score.

Ha ha!

Good points!

I'm with Avi though, I always fill out the bubbles at the beginning. By the time I have finished the exam, I am usually just ready to go home. Plus, filling in the info bubbles at the beginning gives me some time to settle down and get comfortable before I start the actual exam.

Also, when you take multiple DANTES in one day, the 'bubble effect' becomes cumulative. By the time you have finished your third DANTES, you have spent close to an hour simply giving them your personal information. There have been times, on the final DANTES of the day, that I just want to bubble in the words "SEE PREVIOUS". LOL
