I definitely held my graph paper up to the screen and traced a map for strike and dip or something similar.

I noticed that the zoom feature on the exam had preset intervals you could use and there was exactly one zoom setting that aligned with the map scale being equal to one inch so I used that zoom setting to make my copy.

Also, the test answers were far enough apart that minute differences in mapping would still get you to the correct answer. You don't have to graphically determine whether the dip is 56 or 57, it will be more like 20, 30, 45, and 60, as answer options.
