Would hsc markers mark papers if someone wrote bottom up, instead of top down, and starting from the last blank page work towards the first page as a prank?

eg..
Top of Page

...

This is the 6th sentence.
This is the 5th sentence.
This is a new paragraph, 4th sentence.

This is the 3rd sentence.
This is the 2nd sentence.
This is a sentence.

Bottom of Page

instead of...

Top of Page

This is a sentence.
This is the 2nd sentence.
This is the 3rd sentence.

This is a new paragraph, 4th sentence.
This is the 5th sentence.
This is the 6th sentence.

...

Bottom of Page.

Probably. They won't give it as NA (non-attempt) because there is writing on the page. So they have to record a mark. After that it comes down to how they mark the question and if they can find certain ideas in the writing.

Having to read a suicide letter in like say a Maths paper would be pretty daunting
and yeah, i've heard same too, they would have to read through everything.

They will just read it from top to bottom, since it doesn't make much sense so they will reward you 2/20 for knowing some basic English =P

They would probably work out how to read it and mark accordingly.

either they would have no clue as to why it makes no sense and give a very low mark. OR (you should probably write a note saying its bottom up) they would read bottom up and mark just the same as usual.

do they give marks for structure of essay? if they do, then you'd fail at that
structure yes. but structure of the contents of the text, not the physical structure of where its written.

I reckon they'd just mark it the way it was written. They'd begin at the the bottom and work up. Then they'd mark according to content.

But you'd have to pretty stupid to attempt it.

I reckon they will still mark as they do for papers written in pencil, crayon, blood etc

But in the end they will be just awfully pissed having to spend 30mins more trying to read backwards and decipher what u've written.

But if what your written is CORRECT, they can't mark u down for it as it would be against their procedures and they can end up getting in trouble for it lol.

They will mark everything you put on the paper so long as it is readable.

hahahaha i wish id thought of this before!! i so would have done it - even just for a little bit

maths would be funny - it would be like working from the answer to the question haha

i guess the only exam i would do it in would be english creative as theres no reason to do it in anything else except for laughs
