    Hi All,

    Has anybody requested an additional answer booklet from the invigilators during a professional exam? If yes – do you need to fill in all the cells required on the cover page of the main booklet? This takes up some time and I wonder whether it is worth doing this if I have only 5-10 minutes left before the end of the exam.

    Thank you very much.

    To the best of my knowledge and recollection there is not as much to complete on the front of an “extension booklet” as on the main answer booklet. That said, prize-winning scripts do not need extension booklets – it’s quality not quantity that really counts.

    I think the keymaster did not answer your question.asking for extra sheets has nothing to do with trying to be a prize winner.when the exams demands for extra sheets you will call for it even if you are failing.now let me share my experience with you.
    I was writing P6 an was left with few minutes for the exams to end. When I requested for extra sheets the invigilator insisted I complete the first page with my details and what pained me the most when I was begging for time was to insist I attached the extra sheets to the main booklet with a thread she gave me even when I pleaded that she should allow the time to elapse so I do that when they are collecting the booklet. . I lost some time because of the extra sheets but I needed it since my booklet was finished.my lesson is never ask for extra sheets unless you badly need it or you have enough time to write something sensible in it.
