Disadvantages There are also some disadvantages and limitations to OMR. If the user wants to gather large amounts of text then OMR complicates the data collection (Green, 2000), there is also the possibility of missing data in the scanning process, incorrectly or unnumbered pages can lead to them being scanned in the wrong order. Also, unless safeguards are in place, a page could be rescanned providing duplicate data and skewing the data (Bergeron, 1998). For the most part OMR provides a fast, accurate way to collect and input data; however, it is not suited for everyone's needs. As a result of the widespread adoption and ease of use of OMR, standardized examinations consist primarily of multiple-choice questions, changing the nature of what is being tested.

You may be surprised about the number of definitions of the letters OMR and that's just in English. Optical Mark Reading might the one you are asking about.This is an Education Test Marking system that is machine readable. It is fast, accurate, and depending on how any hundreds of papers need to be be read then results are available withine days instead of weeks.
