Writing exam is really the most difficult in my own opinion. Most of us haven't been accustomed to writing long essays since our college days. To add to this, writing using Pencil is hard when the lead dulls out.

With the writing, after the exam i thought i messed up as i run out of words with the essay thus, i added one sentece each paragraph on the last minute, but i was able to get a score of 8. With the pencil thing, i recommend to use a technical pencil (those used by architects and engineers). this was what i used. U can buy a cheaper one. goodluck sa exam!
FYI. ur words should not be less than 250 words and as much as possible limit it to 275.
