Watch into the exam room? (1 Viewer)

[Bobbo1]

I want to keep time by using the stopwatch feature?? allowed or not alloweD?

 

[BOSBOY]

So long as the supervisors don't think you are accessing constants, formulas or notes in the watch memory.

Can't you use the wall clock for the same purpose?

 

[iRuler]

I dont think it's allowed? take one and ask the supervisor before you get in.

I thought it was a 'watches off, on desks' arrangement.

ye it is but i don't think they allow stopwatches/anything that could POTENTIALLY make a beeping sound even if you've got it on silent or whatever. kinda like phones.

You're allowed to take in a watch/stopwatch permitted you leave it on the desk and do not touch it + it must not have communicative capabilities, nor calculative capabilities (even in maths).

And it can't beep.

 

[herbs1]

so you cant touch your watch to reset the timer?

I'm resetting it as they say to place it on the desk.

my chronograph is basically a 60 min timer in built...surely I can press the reset and start buttons?

My teacher said, no wrist watches and any wrist watches must be placed on the table

 

[kfnmpah]

why not just monitor time on your wrist watch without having to use a timer?

^that heaps makes sense.

 

[jamesfirst]

loooooooooooool.


I meant, any wrist watches taken in should be placed on the table and none on the wrist itself.

because it takes more time...some people, like myself, write paragraphs in english until a certain time is reached, that way, all the texts are discussed in the desired ratio.
