Hi Supriya,

It is mandatory to use pencil while writing the exam.This allows you to correct and change your answers.

Please practice with pencil from the beginning as the speech and grip varies that from a pen and might affect the effectiveness during the exam.

Would advise to use a clutch/ technical pencil which you don’t have to sharpen to save time during the exam.
