I hope you haven't done it all in pencil.

it always says "you may use pencil for diagrams"

so I drew the magnetic field lines and the logic gates in pencil.

no problem then, but if you leave calculations in pencil, then that's a problem, heard they don't even bother checking it (that's exaggerated, ofcourse)

The problem is that sometimes for us international students, papers are scanned; thus, the pencil may not show up too well. However, depending on the examiner marking your test (even if the writing shows up clearly), you may either be penalized, or not credited at all for calculations and answers which were not meant to be done in pencil. Best of luck! :confused:
