photocopy is one solution, or just tear them all then bind using the glue / tape method

Do i really have to do this? it would take forever. if my book has perforated pages, would they really take my book away?

They might, I just wouldn't risk it.

 problem then?

You can use a spiral book, at the end of the year, just unwind the spiral, use a hot glue gun to glue down the spine and duct tape over it :)

Or if you have room just hole punch it and get it bound elsewhere

So just to reiterate, if I bring in a binder book with perforated pages and all the pages are bound and even if I shake the book no pages fall out and I don't tear any pages out during the exam, am I allowed to keep it with me during the exam?

Short answer, you are not allowed to bring in a book with perforated pages, that's what the rules state.

You may decide to not follow the rules, but if you care about/need your reference, then you obviously would want to follow the rules, so no, do not bring inn anything with perforations.

So the only way to fix this problem is to tear out all the pages, then bind them?!?!

Don't tear out the pages, just unwind the spiral, you know how to do that right? just take one end of the spiral, straighten it out so it can go through the hole and just turn the spiral over and over again, it will begin to move down the book, just repeat until you reach the bottom.

Then straighten up the book by tapping it on all four sides on a table, then get a bulldog clip and clamp your book together. Now get someone to hold it for you while you run a hot glue gun down the spine of the book, now add a few staples in it as well, then tape it all up with duct tape.

There, it shouldn't take any more than 15 minutes if you do it properly.

Can I just tear out all the pages, then staple along one side? Is that considered to be bounded?

If you ten tape over those staples (duct tape or something), then that's fine. I did that with my loose A4 sheets to make a book :)
