No it doesn't matter....you have to use either black or blue...and it has to be pen but it doesn't matter which.

I also prefer blue :)

i thought everyone preety much used blue anyway... Coz when i went to some economics workshop for exam strategy they gave us these special black pens to use so ours would standout.. I like them so much i keep buying and using them... Though i normally one only lasts <2weeks, wen its close to exams/doing lots of work i get a couple of days out of them.. and they r like $5 each so it adds up lol!

Any pen that doesn't wreck my grip and doesn't run out of ink quickly.

Because it stands more than the black.

the reason they say they prefer black pens is because under the lights at the marking center, blue pen reflects light too much and it becomes a strain on their eyes unlike black pen which also does it but it reflects alot less

i also use blue pen not only to torment the markers but also because i like writing in blue. it doesnt really matter what colour you use as long as it is back or blue pen and nothing else
