Are OU students expected to purchase their own scan tron sheets for tests? If so how much does the book store charge for them?
Yes, and they are more expensive in the bookstore than they are on Amazon. I think .10/sheet? The bookstore sells 2-3 different types, though, so it’s hard to know in advance what kind to buy. It will depend on instructors’ preferences.
After two years, I’ve never once been required to bring my own scantron. I know there are a select few classes/professors that do require it so having 2-3 on hand for emergencies isn’t a bad idea, but it is a fairly rare event. Most departments now have budgets to provide the scantrons.
@WoolScarves, forgive me for forgetting this, but what is your major? I wonder if some majors are more or less Scantron-heavy.
@HeliMom74 I’m chemistry education. None of my science or math classes have required it. As I said, some departments may not have a budget for it, but none that I’ve had classes in. There certainly are classes/professors where they are needed, hence keeping two or three on you is a good idea. It is not a common thing for them to be used though.
