i've also heard about the requirement to use black ink , but it seems not to be outlined anywhere in docket or online....

My tutor at BPP has served as a marker in the past and she said that ACCA guidelines state that black ink must be use at all times - not blue or pencil and never green (this is the colour markers use).

Your paper can be disqualified if you don't use black pen.

Good luck everyone

If you are doing any papers in the second exam week, then you MUST use black as per the instructions that you received with your docket.

The exam scripts in the 2nd week are being marked online, so you MUST write in black. Blue is harder to pick up online, and if they cannot see it they will not mark it.

Also important not to write in margins (left or centre) as these are not seen by the marker either.
