lol, I spent ages figuring out which pens I was going to take, cause after writing for an hour, my hand starts to hurt, and with a crap pen I cannot write at all.
As for the paper, I didn't really notice it, it just made heaps of noise when everyone was turning their pages.

It felt alot like recycled paper! Like all sorts of paper mashed together into a booklet...

I thought that the paper was excellent. I love it and I think my pen does too. Unfortunately, I have done three exams and I am running out of ink. I used about 3 cm of ink in my pen in my Business Studies exam today!

yeah - i totally agree!
damn slow recycled paper for modules - we'll all just blame that if we go shit, heh!
that paper in the change exam was so nice and smooth and cushy - they lulled us into a false sense of security and then slapped us in the face, the bastards!

I didn't notice a difference in the paper.. it felt the same to me..
I prefer to use felt tip pen, because that glides over ANY kind of paper--and surprisingly it didnt go through the page :)

well, if they can't read it, then ... they should just try harder to make sense of it
i had to make sense of their stupid questions, the least they can do is read my answers properly
:rolleyes:

The 8 PAGE paper is shuper shmooth, the 4pagers like for DT are bastards cause the booklet is too thin so there isn't as much padding under then pen. I prefer a pen that some council driving instructor dude gave me at school... has nice grip on it and is pretty thick so your hand doesn't get sore from pinching a bloody stockers biro.

I totally agree- CRAP paper for the modules! I was just telling Mum now how it was recycled and stiff and distinctly "bumped" when I chanced upon this post. But as for pens - I find ball point is always best for exams with extended responses ie English, Economics, etc because for me felt tip always smudges. I like the smoothness of them though, so I used felt for Maths.
