    The answer to both is ‘yes’.

    (Although better than using corrective tape is to simply put a line neatly through your wrong answer, and write instead the changed answer.
    The reason is partly because corrective tape something doesn’t stick properly and everything ends up messy, and also, there might be times when you change what was actually a correct answer – if the marker can see what you originally wrote, and if it was correct, then they may just give you the marks (even though you changed it) :_0 )
