Frankly speaking, who on earth decided to use Serif fonts for statistical tables? The people who type, choose the font and print these tables have surely not used them at all. My verdict: It’s extremely difficult to read, especially when we are rushing for time during the examinations. The tiny curly numbers never fail to make me dizzy. I always take a few moments to reread the numbers again because I tend to read them wrongly. Please tell me I am not the only one who has this problem. I swear it looks a lot worse on the actual paper than the photo. It’s magnify in the photo. I feel like I’m looking at a hundred tiny worms squirming on my paper. Yes, it’s that bad.

Oh goodness, that is hideous. That font should not be used to display numbers, period.

Ugh, serifs surely are visually-friendly but just letters and not numbers. I actually thought the photo was turned upside down because of the numbers.
