Hey guys
Just a quick question, are you meant to do the chemistry/physics exam in pen or pencil?

Pencil for filling out the multiple choice sheet. Pen for the short answer section.

Do we have to write in pen or is it recommended. I don't want to be doing calculations or drawing graphs in pen

From what my teachers have said, every year the assessors complain that it is difficult to read pencil when it is photocopied and there is always the chance of the smudging/erasing when the papers are being handled.

I heard the same thing. And apparently you can only use black pen?

You can definitely use a blue pen, or a black pen.
