    Yes in the rules it says not to write on the booklet, the exception being to highlight key words/mark questions etc. which is what I and most people do I think.

    :confused: We've been taking our papers with us this week, they never told us we have to give them back...? I just hand up writing paper at the end and take the actual exam paper with me...

    You're allowd take them with you patrick, its just in Geography you answer the short questions in the question booklet.

    I wrote loads on my geo question paper. They're not going to take marks of us for it.

    They say you shouldn't do it, but during English I asked the supervisor for an extra sheet of paper so I could plan my essays and write notes on the poems and quotes and stuff on it(I don't like putting it in the booklet beacause then I have to keep flicking over and back) and she got kinda huffy with me, and didn't want to let me have the extra sheet!

    You dont put your exam number on it so you're allowed take it with you. Our supervisor tells us to take them with us.

    From the General Candidate Information:
    A candidate

    1. Shall not write on the examination paper (except where answers are to be written on part of the examination paper itself e.g. in Mathematics) or I.D. card or Mathematics Tables or on any of the mathematical instruments brought with him/her; except where a candidate uses a highlighter pen or underlining as an aid to interpreting the question paper.
    2. Shall not write in his/her answer book anything that is not directly connected with the subject matter of the questions to be answered,
    3. Shall not remove from the answer books any leaf or part of a leaf,
    4. Shall not take out, or attempt to take out, of the examination hall, any answer books, whether used or unused,

    You are entitled to paper for rough work. Your supervisor will stamp it with the centre number and you must hand it up with your script when the exam is over.
