    Highlighting your own quotes for english - which colour?

    One of my teachers recommended that we highlight our quotes points in essays, so it's easier for the marker to read. Does anyone know which colours show up on the scanners for the HSC? I'm guessing yellow won't work, but maybe pink or orange?

I'm currently first for art but am concerned about the workload for the major work in year 12 and if it will just be a time sink. Business does interest me...
