BR - previous or clean copy?

In a recent reply to someone's post, I saw @Pacifico recommend using a clean sheet for BR. I'd never thought of doing that before and my BR scores have been in the 168-180 range the last several months. I wanted to hear your different views on why you choose to use your old copy or use a clean copy when BRing. Personally, I like using my old copies so that I can see which questions I circled. I also find it useful to try and dissect my thought process the first time I answered a question so I can see where I went wrong on some questions. Inevitably though, on the toughest questions I do second-guess myself and have a hard time making a decision between two answer choices (my old one and a different one). Definitely thinking about switching to clean copies to see if it helps my BR scores increase. What do you guys think?

    I'm huge on BR but rarely made a clean copy of the whole test - perhaps just that problem if you really want to.

    Or if it's of a Game, I think a clean copy is worth it.

    I'm all for clean copies.

    Once I made the switch to clean copies I noticed a strong increase in my BR score. I wasn't fighting with my old answers, and I caught my silly mistakes.

    Other than the problem of extra paper and ink, I don't see why you wouldn't print off a clean copy.

    I BR with a clean copy for RC and LG and use my old copy of the LR, but this time around I'm going to try doing a clean copy for all!

    I only BR the questions I circled... I go through the test after I take it and just write down the numbers of all the questions I circled and then I just do those on a clean test so I don't have to fight my ego and can concentrate on the argument structures and the like.

    Also, I have the PDFs so I don't print anything I just use preview to write on the clean PDF.
