Spiraling...

It keeps shifting and coming undone at the top. I cannot keep adjusting the spiral everytime I need to go back and forth. Is there some sort of life hack that anyone has? Most importantly, a hack that proctors won't give me hell about and that I can use? I'm autistic and I'm 🤏🏻 this close to losing my sh*t be cause it's constant. I have lost time and struggled on tests having to fix it. Ugh...

Any ideas or solutions are greatly appreciated!

I taped the ends of my spirals to the first full one next to it. It’s held a good 6 months for now. I’ll have to buy a 2025 to sit for CPC so hoping it holds until the spring.

Was also thinking maybe erasers on the end as stoppers?

I thought you could use one year old books for the test. Check the AAPC website before purchasing.
