    Any tips for 'legible' handwriting?

    They want us to write heaps & write fast. Thats not a good combo. I usually get 9 pages in my exams, but my writing is horrible. Of course it would be! What do they expect. To make each stroke neat that would mean you put more grip into it and I just can't do that. Any tips on how to write...

    staying awake
