4 blue
4 black
1 red
2 rubbers
2 sharpeners
2 calculators
1 ruler
:cool:
u realise u have no pencil and two sharpeners?

And the number of pens you take in is proportional to the size of a mans "package", "sausage and mozza balls" or "penis and testicles"

So you guys with just 2 pens..... *lifts pinky finger and waves it*

should use black pens, they definitely are more distinguishable from the lined hsc exam booklets.

your single table will contain

1. question booklet
2. answer booklets (could have 10 booklets for mathematics, etc.)
3. calculator(s)
4. attendance and declaration sheet (roughly same size as sign with candidate number)
5. sign with your candidate number (half the size of A4)
6. probably your watch

think twice about bringing too many pens or there will be a lot of noisy shuffling, wasting valuable time to sort out the mess.
Dengus McCloud, u do realise that not evrything has to be on ur table?
Place unncesary stuff on the floor!

3 new black pens - if they're new they wont run out in the middle of an exam. any more and i find it cluttering up my table.
isnt there a rule about not being allowed to pick up anything from the floor? or something? to prevent cheating? this is why i never leave stuff on the floor unless i know i deffs wont use it (eg: calculator in english exam)

I take a random amount.
Why would you count how many you take into every exam?
Seriously.
I mean shouldn't you be thinking about what your about to be writing about for the next few hours XD

I just stack my pencil case the night before the exam; usually with 1 pen that I like to write with (always black) and maybe 3 or 4 spares and 1 red.

my eco teacher said that he has marked/marks eco and bus. stud.

Apparently there was a case study required with mixed responses in B.S.
eg. Qwontus Airlines
eg. The student got bored and drew a guy on a surfboard... coloured in with several different pens

Economics
eg. HDI of 9.8
eg. China has a population of a gazillion
eg. China has a population of over 1 million, several times larger than australia's 200,000.
eg. If you lined up all the people in China, it would go around the world several times and the line would keep getting longer because they will not stop fornicating.

This is a bit random... I know... my only example why people need pens of many colours is to draw when u epic fail.
