What pen have you been using for you HSC exams? (1 Viewer)

[loki911]

papermate kilometrico dominate.

i'm left handed though and i found that my exam was covered in smudge marks by the time i finished. can anyone empathise?

yea I'm left handed too and i used to use gel pens but now switched to ball points so writting speed greatly decreased. I managed to pump out 7 pages for AOS and HOW can someone get out 6 books unless their handwriting is massive.

lol pens? what are pens?

This one...

OMG, so many Kilometrico users. Those goddamn things always smudge on me for whatever reason, lol, so I avoid them like the plague x.x

Funny thing with gel pens or ink pens is that they can't cough up ink as fast as I write... So yeah -.-

I use Bic Cristal. You know, the kinda pens that you can get fifty for $2. They don't smudge for me, lol, and that's all that matters XD

I have 9 black kilometrico pens in my plastic sleeve. That's 9km of writing, according to their guarantee.

Yeah um, I just use a Parker Pen that my friend got me.

 

[jjo]

I use 23 induvidually lettered stamps of the alphabet to write my exams......
......and an inkpad.

takes a while but you get used to it.

On the harder tests i bring in a stamp with the phrase "Fuck it" underlined. Conveys a lot of emotion and power at the same time.




Seriously though i use Bic gel pens.

Go through one a exam. Feels like im a gun using up ammo. Spent pens/cartridges everywhere!

 

[tnosrac]

Plus the ever handy Bic 4 colors in one.

Agree. Have used these for a long time now.

Another Kilometrico user. I buy them because they're cheap to get bulk lots. And I have a habit of breaking pens, either through biting, bending or other means...

 

[Kew]

I have a habit of breaking pens, either through biting,

Oooh, my #1 habit.

Gotta love the large amounts of boredom that turn into fun with a pen in your mouth.

I am using Uni-ball eye, these pens are so quick and smooth so that my essays can get significant pages lol.

 

[m.incognito]

The pens of the future.

I've been using the Artline 200. It's a top pen. Helps me to write real fast.

^^^ those.

Ahh, the old artline 200, black 0.5mm.

That is the predecessor to the predeseccor to the pen I am using now.
First I got hooked on the Artline Ergoline 3400 0.4mm black. So much so that I ordered a whole box of them for my hsc exams. $40 :S

Then, about a week before HSC I found a new calling...the Uniball Signo 207 0.5mm Black.

The artline 200 was pretty alright. The Artline Ergoline 3400 was smooth.
But the uniball 207 is very smooth.


You can tell that I take my pens seriously.
Or I'm crazy.

 

[longy91]

im using some blue papermate ball point pen, and after the english exam, the outside of my hand was blue!! i hate pens that smudge! lol

 

[runnable]

 

[knots&crosses]

Yeah um, I just use a Parker Pen that my friend got me.

isnt that a bit heavy??? My teacher gave me one for good luck, and i wanted to use it but it slowed my writing down sooooo much...

 

[emobopeep]

The medium blue pens are my favourite to write with. I have at least ten unused, should they ever be discontinued. I love how dark the ink is (so much more so than Kilometricos)! They last forever, I once used one for two entire terms' worth of work.

I've never seen the fine-point variety in store

OMG, so many Kilometrico users. Those goddamn things always smudge on me for whatever reason, lol, so I avoid them like the plague x.x

i find the damn things annoying because im a loyal pen user and end up using my pens till they absolutely give up and die but with kilometricos i find that around the halfway point in the ink, the damn things decide to explode in the summer causing ink to go everywhere
