However if you need peace of mind, go to your year level co-ordinator and he/she can take it from there.

Yeah why?

I noticed that and I thought that's odd.

All other subjects (that I have) have only barcode and number no name.

I suspect this is to remove all bias that may have come from name. perhaps with chem due to electronic marking and all the examiners don't get to see the barcode at all.

We had our names printed on the English exam too.

Post by: jaccerz on November 15, 2010, 09:14:33 pm: they only get you to write your number and then as words on the front so then if they have trouble reading some of your writing they can try and figure out which letters you have used.

and to make sure the writing is the same style and not someone else doing your exam
