Handwriting in exams (gcse)

GUYS I’m scared my handwriting has always been legible to all my teachers but I’m starting to think that’s only cuz they are used to it. PLEASE tell me examiners have experience in reading a lot of messy handwritings and won’t bring ur grade down cuz of it😿😿

It kinda just dawned on me since I did my RS exam today and um… if they can’t read it I’m cooked.

You’ll be fine. My handwriting it TERRIBLE and I got some of the top grades. Examiners read thousands of different student’s handwriting each year, they’re kind of pros at this. Yours won’t be the worst they read.

They should be able to read it and they cannot increase your grade down because of it

Apparently they send it off to a hand writing expert if they can’t read it so you’ll be alr
