    Hi, can anyone explain what ACCA mean by ”bubble”? I’ve not taken a paper exam before, and take the below extract from ACCA.com.

    Quote:
    There are six critical instructions to follow in order that your exam paper can be marked correctly using the new on-screen technologies. You will be reminded of these instructions again on the day of the exam.
    1. Please complete your personal details on the front of the script booklet. Plus it is essential that you [/b]bubble (fully colour-in the appropriate circle) the following details very carefully
    registration number
    desk number
    paper description for exam being taken
    exam centre.
    2. Please start each question on a new page and the question number should be bubbled in the section at the top of the page.
    3. Please use black pen at all times; to complete your details on the booklet and when answering the exam questions.
    Pencil, fountain pens, gel pens and other colours of pen (including highlighter pens) will not be picked up by the scanning technology and could result in questions not being marked correctly.
    4. Please score out incorrect answers rather than use correction fluid.
    5. Please do not write in the margins as this information will not be presented to the marker during the marking process.
    6. Please do not write answers across the centre of the booklet as the middle margins will not be visible in the marking process.

    I don’t understand what it means to ”Bubble” your Desk number, registration number, question etc?

    …Colouring in it is as per the extract is nonsensical. How will they be able to read it if i colour it in?

    but this is not a serious matter,u can easily understand when you see ur booklet,
    the matter is your prepration, so do concentrate on that.
