You don't stop writing.
If you do, you're losing marks.
Simple as that.
You get 15mins reading time - unless you're stupid and would rather just sit there, this is when you mentally plan all your essays and organise your thoughts.
The only time I wasn't writing was when I was waiting a few moments for a second script book, when I had a sip of water, and when my hand cramped and I needed to stretch it for a few seconds.
There is one consolation: I should mention that I'm not a particularly fast writer... others will probably find writing copious amounts in a short amount of time to be easier than I do.
I'm strongly opposed to these sorts of exams - what do they test exactly?
It's certainly not knowledge or comprehension... there isn't enough time for students to demonstrate anything particularly insightful that would allow them to demonstrate this.

my question too.....
iwakura:
i heard from my finance tutor at UoM that generally monash provides a better commerce undergrad. he was saying it had something to do with the coupling of double degrees say for smrandom azn commerce/business information systems?(if i remember from above) provides better opportunities for grads. although...that same tutor said that postgrad at UoM is better than monash and anu due to difficulty and prestigious-ness lol overall i dont think it really matters, as long as you can add stuff to your degree (e.g. diploma in maths or languages) opportunities domestically and in foreign workplaces are higher.
