Just a few questions that i would like the answer to =D

In Physic and Chemistry you are allowed to answer questions using dotpoint form and tables, yes/no?
In Economics (specifically) you are not allowed to write over the lines (for short answers section) or it wont be marked, yes/no?

Please reply only if you are certain TY!

To answer your first question, yes.

From one of the Chemistry HSC notes from the marking centre:
The response may include the use of dot points, diagrams and/ortables, as this will help avoid internal contradictions. This is particularly so in holistic questions which
need to be logical, well constructed and relevant to the questions asked.
The same thing is also in Physics HSC notes from the marking centre.

Great thanks nightweaver.

Also another simple question: If my second question is true i was thinking of using like a 0.3 fine ink pen so i write smaller, so my question is do you have to use ball-point pen for the HSC exams?

and again, please answer if you are certain =D TY

Answers get scanned, so try not to mind-f*ck the marker if your writing is so small they need to squint.

Provided that what you have written is legible, it should be fine.
