Start New Exam from a Generated Answer Sheet

You can now start a new exam from a previously generated answer sheet. For example, if you have a blank answer sheet generated at www.GradeYourTest.com, then you no longer need to recreate your exam definition manually before loading completed answer sheets. Simply drag-and-drop previously generated blank answer sheet file into Grade Your Test Desktop program, and the program will read and load correct exam definition that matches the loaded blank answer sheet.

Start a new exam from a previously generated answer sheet: use either drag-and-drop or file menu.

Added Exam Form Barcode

• Why barcode? New barcode is essential to better identify exam forms.
• It is import to correctly identify which exam form is being loaded, because now answer sheet forms can vary substantially from each other.
