    I completely agree, I thought you were allowed 2 pages of scrap paper but it seems they have updated their guidance and you are not allowed any now. I was hoping to sit FM in March and have no idea how you are expected to do complex calculations without a pen and paper?! I have practised with the constructed workspace scratchpad function and I’ll never be able to type up the short question calculations in the time allocated 🙁

    I have also received this email today 🙁

    You are allowed to use a calculator but no scrap paper. How are you supposed to do all the calculations without scrap paper. I know you can use the scratch pad that it will take so much longer and not ideal for complex formulas etc. Gutted the centre exams are cancelled.

    Has anyone done one of these remote exams without using pen and paper?
