Actually typing speed, note taking, keyword marking

[Joker-hxwm]

In my opinion, computer-based is better than paper-based since testers don't worry much about whether their handwriting is readable or not. Also, writing on paper always causes pain to my hand

[Awful.]

The biggest plus in computer based exam is one module retake which is not available in paper based exam

[bhargavpala]

With computer based you can do 1 skill retake…Something which is not available on paper based

What if your hand writing is not easily readable, wouldn't that affect the test results ?

[MrBoomTV-mz]

Yeah it isn't major to use the computer based score or paper based score. Its depends only pupils ability, their knowledge and structure of the patterns
