Are you allowed to fold the corner of pages in a book for an exam?We got given clean copies of of mice and men and an inspector calls for the exam which are not to be written, but I was just wondering if you're allowed to fold corners of pages lightly and take it in the exam like that, of pages of main useful quotes?

I see no reason why you couldn't. I did it in my exam, was no issues.

Re: Are you allowed to fold the corner of pages in a book for an exam?Same, I hope we're actually allowed because it will be so much easier than frantically flicking through pages in the exam haha -
Re: Are you allowed to fold the corner of pages in a book for an exam?You get the book when you go in and sit down, you won't get the opportunity to fold down corners etc before hand as you should (by exam rules) get given completely new copies. However during the exam you can fold the corners and you are allowed to amke notes on the book (most schools say you cant so they can reuse them). Good luck !!(Original post by iJess)

Re: Are you allowed to fold the corner of pages in a book for an exam?Not at our school we've got given the clean exam copies now, the examiners check your book when you go in but I'm asking because folding the corner isn't writing notes etc is it?(Original post by Doctor-to-be)

Re: Are you allowed to fold the corner of pages in a book for an exam?Why does WJEC not let you have books?

and ok I might fold them but then unfold them before the exam so they can still be kinda seen by me, thanks


) but they let you do it at A Level even on WJEC and you can fold page corners over and put little sticky markers in there, but you can't make any notes on them. So you should be fine
