electronic dictionaries (1 Viewer)

are electronic dictionaries allowed to be used in teh HSC testing rooms? well this is what people do if they do have one, and are able to use on tests, they store all the information on their electronic dictionaries then just use it in tests. And teachers dont know about it.

Dont worry guys i dont have one, i do adv eng.. ..

do you guys think its kinda "cheating" in a sense since what you can do with it during tests? especially the hsc

You're not allowed to use electronic dictionaries. There is already a problem with watches (you have to take them off during the exam).

Check http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/manuals/equipment_list.html

I hope those people get caught

ok thank god, makes me feel so much better, not that it matters, because they won't get higher than me anyway because they don't know english lol

I don't think any electronic devices (other than watches) are allowed in examinations.

with watches you're told to take them off and put them to one side/corner of your desk.

My friend had a Pierre Cardin watch with tiny crystals on the face of the watch. She put it on her exam desk, but nudged it off by accident. Some crystals fell out of place and her watch stopped working.

how much would you freak if that happened, it would probably put your mind off the test.

She didn't even notice. After the exam she just walked away and it was still on the floor. It was me who picked it up for her.
