yeah it says blue or black on the front of the paper. Although I don't think you would get penalised for writing in pink, it would just give the markers the shits and thus taint their mark.

But I write in black, considering changing to blue so they can't use me for the standards package....

In the hard copy of the HSC timtable its says that to use either a blue or black pen but black is reccommended. I wrote in black even though i hate writing in it and always use blue.

omg
this is a pointless thread
the only thing ud have to worry about is whether some old fart who sits til 2am in minimal light is marking ur paper
cause then those who wrote in blue (like me) are gonna piss that marker off!
