So you're allowed to use a computer for the HSC exams?Tommy_69 said:yeah i applied for special provisions cuz i never finished exams cuz im a slow writer. i get to use a computer for all my assessments and the actuall exams. In my economics assessment this year b4 i was granted the special provision I wrote about 6 pages although it was pretty big writing and included diagrams.
My hand sweats when I write essays as well...you need a pen with a good grip, then it doesn't slip even if you sweat profusely.lesmiester_dj said:that reminds me trev. i write neat at first, but then my hand makes the writing scrawl, and my hand is so sweaty that it constantly slips. i'm taking a tower next time i do an exam!!!
umm im not sure on the paper i got telling me the rules of using a computer it said. "if you have to draw in a exam, you will have to notify us immediately". i still gotta talk to my special provisions coordinator.~ ReNcH ~ said:lol...that'd be cool though.
Btw. what happens if you needed to draw a graph in an exam you were typing in...are you allowed to draw it in pen/pencil or do you have to do it with Paint or something?
Hmm...I think the best thing you can do is to relax...I know it's difficult and most, if not all students have trouble doing it during an exam...but if you're relaxed, then you don't perspire as much.lesmiester_dj said:i was using them spuer grip pens!!! they suck so badly, it kept slipping out of my fingers. i think them paper mates with the heaps good grips are the way to go, though i've never used it in exam conditions.
Yeah, clammy hands are bad! Hahalesmiester_dj said:that reminds me trev. i write neat at first, but then my hand makes the writing scrawl, and my hand is so sweaty that it constantly slips. i'm taking a towel next time i do an exam!!!
Whoa...that equates to 1800 words in 40 mins...that's an awful lot.lesmiester_dj said:what did you mean by that rench??
today i did my english assessment task and i wrote about 4 and a half pages. each page, equated to rough 600 words. so i'm guessing i wrote about 2700 words in about 60 minutes. i guess nick was right. i was writing like crazy man!!
