Pencils?

[Andiio]

Stupid question... but I have these green pencils made by an asian company and they are really good quality and such; also can't find other good pencils LOL and ceebs buying any more... just wondering if the people/supervisors would care if I used them? (They have a little bit of pinyin and some chinese words on them to indicate the company etc)

Thanks!

Hm doubt it, although maybe ask your teacher to make sure?

I don't know if your invigilators are really observant.  But really, if the invigilators suspect something, they have within their right to confiscate the pencils.  Then you won't have them.

Yeah true.. that's why I'm bringing ~ 2 pacers and a few extra other pencils along as well.
Hmm I emailed VCAA but still no reply as of yet :S (emailed them around last week)

if its not big, and it's like, on the top part of the pencil, why not just grab a pair of scissors and scrape it off? y'know, like back in primary school when some kids parents did that to write the kid's name on it instead?
