what pencils stay sharpest the longest? Forum

DULL pencils are the best for bubbling. If you use a sharp pencil to bubble, you'll be wasting valuable time. Go with a well-worn tip.

Can I bring a mechanical pencil to the exam?

You cannot.

Hence my comment about mechanical pencils that look like real pencils.

This is my favorite post on TLS right now .
If there was a signature option, this would be in mine.

Do you even want your pencils to stay sharp for very long? As they dull, one can fill bubbles more quickly.

Ticonderogas also have fantastic erasers. Even with a separate eraser, you'll quickly get used to using the eraser attached to the end of the pencil.
