Using a highlighter in the exam??

Eestelle12y ago

Hi, I know this may sound trivial, but could someone clarify if we are able to take highlighters into the exam and use them on the exam question paper to highlight certain parts of the question (more for 8, 9 & 10 really, the scenario questions)? Thanks for your help :-)

i guess its not necessary for it might instead end up consuming most of your quality time

You can use a highlighter at any time! You can make any marks on the question paper that you want to. Obviously anything you write on the question paper will not be marked, but if it helps you then no problem :-)

But beware not to use it in your answer booklet - when your answers are scanned to a marker the effect of the highlighter could be to cover your writing (in black ink)!

Thanks everyone :-) I think because of my age ;-) I would find it helpful to highlight the relevant parts of the last 3 scenario questions like the tutors do in their helpful exam tip videos :-) Will not do it on the answer paper though. Thanks again :-)
