You should generally stay within the lines. My teacher is a state marker. This is because they want the answers to be concise and straight to the point .For the HSC in the subjects of chem and physics, if you overflow your answers, e.g. you write everything you know about it, do you get marks deducted?
Nope , stay within the lines. Edit: I'm not sure m.but what happens if you write a lot. Example scenario: you have a lot of time left and unsure about a question, can you just write everything you know hoping that one of the points you wrote answers the question?
This is what I did with my chemistry trial and I got a decent mark for it. But with everything I did write down, I tried to link it back to the question they were asking.but what happens if you write a lot. Example scenario: you have a lot of time left and unsure about a question, can you just write everything you know hoping that one of the points you wrote answers the question?
