You're MUCH better off printing them out - as expensive as that can become!
That way you can circle all the really good / challenging ones to review again closer to the exam, and you have a nice pile of exam papers you've done :)

agreed ^ its soo much better actually getting rpactice at writing them on paper. and contrary to what people may say, print of the solutions, that way you can referernce them easily and you can highlight and do all sorts of annotations to stuff you need to remeber

Or you can save Mother Nature by reading the solutions and transferring whatever annotations you need from the screen to paper.

Last time I tried to print notes double sided, I screwed up the second half and ended up printing twice as much.

Yes definitely print the exams off; cos then you will have an incentive to do them.
If they're all on your computer, you're more unlikely to be inclined to do them.

and btw, you're not saving the environment, the trees have already been killed and converted to paper.  ::)

Yeah I hate when this happens lol; but after printing so many lecture notes u get the hang of printing them correctly :D

You can print them off smaller if you want, by photocopying and resizing and then printing two exam pages to one copy page.

Do you have to pay for your school library printing?
I literally spent all my spares in year 12 printing off exams.

um im actually not sure. last yr we did (10c a page) and it sed everytime we logged on the computers how much printing money we had left - they gave us 20 bucks worth at the start. but i started printing this yr but the thing that tells us how much money we have left isnt there anymore. so i think they could have changed it and made it free...hopefully :D

Haha ours was free.  They asked me to stop photocopying the exams because I kept jamming one of the printers.  But I didn't listen.  AND I LEARNT KNOW TO UNJAM A MASSIVE PRINTER.
