Yeah man, use correction tape.
If you're not clean and perfect you lose marks.

Just don't bring any correction pen or tape. The marker is curious in how you answer the question so they will read whatever is on the answer space, even if you crossed it out. They'll give you mark if your cross out is correct. So I highly don't recommend bringing these kind of equipment in the exam.

Btw my question!!! :): Does the examiners check my calculator model or check its function before letting me enter the exam ?

They reset your calculator before the exam commences so either before you enter or when you sit down during the period of getting ready.

Yes! There's like a few boring supervisors in the room so all they do is simply clear the calculators and watch your magic numbers disappear unless you saved a backup.
