During an exam, good time management is often overlooked, when in fact, it is almost as important as content knowledge. Memorising the entire textbook and practising all the assessment book questions would be useless if you don’t have the time to complete your exam paper. Hence, every second in the exam counts, and it’s best to have everything you need with you so you can maximise your efficiency. Get the STABILO Exam Grade Range Set which includes two boxes of 2B Pencils (12pcs), an eraser, and a sharpener. The 2B pencil has improved smudge resistance for cleaner writing, and the 2.5mm wide coverage hexagonal-shaped design enables faster shading on your Optical Answer Sheets.
