"I purchased these to substitute for regular wooden pencils in math class. The reviewer who noted that the pencil doesn't skip if you use light pressure was correct - but some of us naturally apply more pressure, and in such cases, the roller ball skips, which makes the writing look like the pencil is running out of ink.

One major issue I have with this pencil is that the graphite is not very dark. This is of primary importance to students who need to be able to rely on a #2 pencil for marking scantron-type answer sheets. Contrary to the packaging, this pencil is not equivalent to a #2 - even with heavy marking, a bubbled-in circle is still a shade lighter than a standard #2."

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
