IS MY HANDWRITING LEGIBLE?

[nacho]

im freaking out na not really but
my teacher said it looks like vomit
and the examiner's will have a tough time reading it if i write like this:

is it THAT BAD? >>> BTW, this is written inside my exercise book, i.e i have a thick base to write on, so it is actually not as neat as my 'exam writing' where it is just below a table. This is the WORST my handwriting will get, and below this picture, is the BESt my handwriting can get. Is the "BEST" at least adequate?

i wouldn't want to be reading it if I was correcting it.

ROFL, and all my teachers said my handwriting was illegible LOL

i wouldn't want to be reading it if I was correcting it.

interesting, my question is though
a) can you read it
b) would you form preconceived ideas based on my handwriting, and thus not expect much, but be pleasantly surprised after reading it, having ur expectations exceeded?

is it legiblE??

[jinny1]

wow they look like scribbles

[Mags]

I think it's legible, which is the most important thing, but not the most attractive handwriting there is....

[BigFunt]

there are some words that I can read, others that I can't at all make out.

To be honest, when you hand writing is messy, it ruins the flow of the piece automatically, because the correcter is going to have to stop and try and work out what a word is every so often.


BUT the one tup i can give you, is just to space out your letters a bit more. but realy, don't try to change anything now, it will be detrimental to your mindset going into the exam.

thank you, i agree its butt ugly, im just glad to know its legible.
i was considering buying one of those
'write well' books and spending 2 hours or so on that because of what ive heard about my handwriting

[nemolala]

lol well I can read it. All my teachers complain too that there is no way anyone can read mine. I have tried fixing it but that is always short lived.

Not making him feel any better guys, now come on we don't want to give him a heart attack. My suggestion is to stop joining as much, it might slow you down a little bit though. But it's better if they can actually read it.

I can read it, but it's not fluent since I'm stopping every 2-3 words, but it is readable

[nemolala]

can they mark you down because of your handwriting?

This is exactly what your writing is.

[timick]

can they mark you down because of your handwriting?

Not really, but if you make their job harder they might, they are human beings after all.

[Greatness]

It's legible, but if i were an examiner i would be like 'ohhh gooooshhh......' It's nots not good if you make the examiner try harder to read/understand your piece.
But if your essays are good the wont give a shit, to a certain extent

can they mark you down because of your handwriting?

It wont make them like you. If you have beautiful hand writing they you'll make it easier and quicker for them to read. So you'll be in their good books. Plus they have a stack of essays to mark, if you make life easier for them they'll reward you providing your essays are good lol
