English term or phrase: Do not make any stray marks
Anweisungen für einen Test:

"Answer as many of the questions as you can in the time allowed. Your score will be the number of right answers. Do not spend too much time on a single question. Indicate your answers by marking an X in the space corresponding to the correct answer. If you make a mistake, DO NOT ERASE YOUR MARK. Put a circle around the X. After you have circled the answer you do not want counted, mark an X in the box you DO WANT COUNTED. ***Do not make any stray marks on the test pages***. You will answer your first page of the test questions in the unshaded area on the right of your test booklet. When you finish answering the questions on page 1, turn to page 2 and answer the questions for that page by marking your answers on the right-hand side of the page. Continue to do this for each page of questions, working as quickly and as accurately as you can."

Soll das heißen: „Schreiben Sie nur in die vorgesehenen Felder“?

einzelne Bemerkungen


Explanation:
stray remarks/sentences = einzelne Bemerkungen/Sätze

Machen Sie keine sonstigen Bemerkungen auf den Testbögen

Das ist meiner Meinung nach etwas anderes als "schreiben Sie nur in die vorgesehenen Felder".

neutral  Ulrike Lieder (X): "marks" und "remarks" sind aber nicht dasselbe, insofern würde diese Antwort den Sinn des Originals entstellen.
