hey guys
just wondering if anyone has had any experience with using pencil on an exam and losing marks?
I used it to draw a graph for one of the physics questions and now i'm worried..
should I ring VCAA or something? D:
-
Depends, I used mostly pen but partly pencil for one of my end-of-year exams last year, and don't think I lost anything for it.. But since mid-year exams are scanned, I'm not too sure..However, if you drew it darkly then it shouldn't be much of a problem =/

Heaps of people did it in ours, they said don't worry about it!
-
Yeh, I used pencil in physics. If they can't read it, it probably won't make a difference to my mark anyway, but I did use pen for chem though.
The instructions from physics was to use either, chem was to be in pen.
-
the instructions at the start of the exam where 'you can use pen or pencil for SA' for bio,
didn't even say they preferred pen
and we started writing time 5 minutes early, before someone said that =.=, so we stopped writing after 10 seconds
