Students&#8217; first and last names, the instructor name, as well as the exam title, should appear clearly on all paperwork. Instructors can request to receive these materials once all students have taken the test, or have them shredded. If students wish to follow up with an instructor regarding a test question, students can ask to have their scratch paper scanned and emailed to their professor.<\/p>\n\n                                                <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                                                            <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n        \n\t\n\t    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Students should read the Testing Policies &amp;
