I like using the pilot friction pen, but there's a possibility of it fading away, so i'm not sure if i should use it. I've read that it only fades at temperatures of 65 degress so it's probably unlikely that it will fade on our exam right? What do you guys think?
-
To be safe, don't use one. They smudge quite easily and you don't want to risk it fading after you've handed it in. If the exam is not marked on a computer screen, you probably wouldn't want your responses to be erasable anyway, just in case an examiner decides to change your answers.
Think about what you will write in the exam before you put it down on paper and if you make a mistake, just neatly cross it out with a ruler. :)

Yeah, don't. If your exam room gets as boiling hot as ours did in the tech-active Methods exam last year, everything you write will disappear immediately :P

This is God tier Pilot pen. Do not compromise

What happened to the humble kilometrico lol.

I remember that a while ago you claimed that music pirates support terrorist organisations, now it's this?
Where do you get this information from?

Why would an examiner want to do that?

It's an extremely rare occurrence, but I would never risk using anything where my answers could potentially be changed. Even for Maths, I've been using a pen.
-
Are you allowed to use a pencil?
I never got my pen license back in Primary School so all the years I have been a rebel. My hand writing is putrid and I'm afraid I will be making way too many mistakes .. I can't afford an erasable pen because I'm cheap.

Extremely rare occurence means that it's happenned in the past - do explain.
-
I don't think it's happened before, Paul. I'm just saying it's a potential possibility. Haha. :P
-
another possibility is that the examiner SWITCHES your paper with an identical blank paper with your label on it!
What are you going to do about that?
Maybe when you're looking at the time on the board a superviser will duck across your shoulder and cross an answer out!

It doesn't mean that at all.
If you use pencil in your exams at uni then examiners are allowed to refuse to mark them for this specific reason fyi
