    Can we use colors other than black in exam answer sheets to avoid making mistakes?

    Hello

    The only mention of font colour that I can see in the handbook is the following paragraph on page 7:

    11. You must ensure the content of your examination script is visible to mark. You should remove any formatting that has the potential to hide text, such as track changes, hidden text properties or font colours that will make your script illegible. Please ensure you preview your examination script before you submit it, as we cannot consider any Assessment Appeals based on exam questions or parts of questions that cannot be marked.

    This suggests to me that colours are fine as long as it is not illegible. However, you should double check with the IFoA on any queries relating to your script to be certain.
