Bad handwriting and university papers


Bad handwriting 'may' prove a boon
Unfortunately, I have seen students with bad handwriting scoring well even when they haven’t studied much. Best way would be writing in a haphazard way. As if, you really don’t care who the hell you are writing for and who the heaven is going to read it. Whatever happens you should keep your writing discernible, It should be readable, but with 'effort'. So, the examiner must be able to read it but for that he must have to strain his eyes and cock his eyebrows to the fullest extent. Slowly wrinkles will  mark his forehead and he will ignore what you have written and just go through the answer as if he is getting it, give you average marks and page turn over. Lo! you have got marks for something you practically knew about almost nothing. But, remember that this is an extreme crisis situation live-saver technique. And I cannot assure you that this works. I just presented before you the logical rationality of the situation.
Besides this writing big and spacious should make you use more space on the answer sheet and thus should favour you in fetching marks from the already sleepy examiner.
We always enjoyed saying, ''Write more and make it heavy".
