Just use a pen. The worst that can happen is that you cross something out neatly and rewrite it.

Talk about unwanted stress T___T
Not really comfortable with using a pen exactly cos of that, the whole crossing out things; especially in explanation questions.

For mid year i recall it requiring pen... because I was uncomfortable with using a pen but did so anyway.
