You do need special provisions for food to be in the examination room. A girl in my English Paper 1 exam got lollies taken off her. We are also not allowed to have our own watches or clocks.
noone at my school who takes food in has special provisions, i'm sure of it... maybe your supervisors are just really strict!! we are allowed to have watches but they have to be in clear view on the table...

I chew gum during the exams.... helps me concentrate. Lollies have too much smell... if someone else were eating them it would distract me.

I told the superviser in Extension English exam that I didn't feel comfortable taking off my watch and since then they haven't made anyone take off their watches.

how come we're allowed lollies and we are forbidden to do things like bringing a water bottle without a clear label on it? wat if someone writes answers on the lolly wrapper?

Our biology teacher, jamesy, gave each student a pack of jelly beans to take into the exams. The examiners had no problems

I asked the pres officer if I could take in chocolate to give me a sugar hit, coz after 2 hours yuo start to feel a bit flat, tummy starts to grumble, etc. She said I could only bring in clear things so they could see i didn't have any notes with me. So I brought in gummi bears and they were good. As if you could write any notes on the gummi bears, unless you engraved them with your teeth..
I don't think anyone else brought in any food. LOL just thinking of people spreading out a picnic and asking for extra tables for their food. Someone should try that, wonder what the superviors would do?!
