What should applicants do with printouts of data from calculators?

• A. They should surrender printouts at the completion of the test
• B. They may keep them after the test
• C. They should submit them with the answer sheet
• D. They should destroy them immediately after use

Answer: (A)

The important idea here is test security and how calculator scratch work is handled. On FAA knowledge tests, you surrender all printouts from calculators to the test administrator when you finish the exam. These printouts are considered part of your scratch work and must not be kept by you, nor should they be submitted with your answer sheet or destroyed by you. The proctor collects them to maintain a consistent testing environment and prevent sharing or retention of calculation data between test-takers. So the correct action is to hand over the calculator printouts at the end of the test.
