This study was conducted to develop a Computer-Aided Examination System of the College of Information and Computing Sciences of Cagayan State University at Lal-lo. This system supports the institution to conduct examinations fast, produce instantaneous but reliable results, reduce effort in validating and checking answers and transform traditional process of examination into a paperless exam through this multiple choice based examination. This proposed study used the systems development and design type of research. Internet technology was used to gather information that scaffold them in developing the proposed system. Oral interview was also used in identifying the problems encountered by the CICS faculty and students during examination period. Faculty problems during written examinations are: dishonesty of students, erasures and unreadable handwriting of some students. Students’ problem during written examinations are: no ball pen, no paper and they are sometimes forced by their friends to show off their quiz paper. These problems make the results of traditional examinations unreliable thus, the researchers developed this computer aided examination system to address these problems. The Computer Aided Examination system was developed using Visual Basic 6 and MS Access.
