Hmm i think the uniball 207c is a pretty good pen, looks pretty damn sexy aswell =]

[pwoh]

I've always used blue, black just looks weird now =] Probably out of habit.

I like medium-fat pens...I always use that medically-sponsored pen (somac or something). Those kilometrico ones are too light and thin for my tastes, and the lines they make are too thick and dark at the beginning (when they start to die they look horrible)

Nice pen.

I use the kilometrico ones, both blue and black, depending on my mood. I recently discovered those multi-coloured kilometrico pens available. They seem pretty nice. Wished I discovered them before the trials though.

[FOB all the way]

i dont no if this has been asked but we were told to use black to day as that is what the bored prefers, was every one told this or just my school, cause i like blue but today i forced myself to use black

and i use Bic soft feel med
nice thin pen that is smooth to write with

I used to use nice pens, the decent sort of gel ones, because they leave ink on the page in stead of scratching away (yes, I'm very particular about my pens).

But my teachers told me to stop. I already write really fast and quite messily, so anything other than generic ball-points just goes everywhere and becomes entirely illegible.

Feels horrible, but at least I haven't had to read out an exam to a teacher because of ball-points.

Using Pilot Super Grip at the moment... Black

I wont write with a blue pen, black on white just makes sense

Blue usually unless it's a heading. I prefer thin pilot or thin bic's classic fine

yeah blue definitely, only use black for a table heading or if i dont have any blue left

The pen that I always use now is the LAMY Safari Fountain Pen.
It's just so smoothhh- i love it.
The re-fills are easy to put in, which gives me a tiny break from my exam paper to think what i've written. And the ink dries super quick so no smudges.

did anybody else find the paper for the exams absolutely shit for left handers to write on?
i had one pen(that i thought was great for me) and was using that,but noticed it smudging heaps, and it had never done that before.
so i had to switch pens. my exam was half in blue, half in black,haha.
does anybody have any suggestions for good pens for left hander to use?

I once used a felt tip pen in an in class assessment and on the feedback sheet the teacher wrote "Do not use felt tip pen." And I asked why afterwards and she said, when she marked the HSC, the lighting in the shed place they do it in is rather strange, when you've been marking heaps of essays, the ones written in felt tip pen look like the words are floating off the page >.<
