- The bubble should be darkened completely without leaving any space inside the round space.
- No darkening should be done outside the specified area of the bubble.
- Only blue/ black ballpoint pen should be used. Use of pencil during coloring of bubble is not allowed.
- Do not place tick mark or any other symbol inside the bubble to denote your answer.
