Examssss

Well, writing you answers in the pink booklet would be just fine ... if you neither wish nor expect to receive a mark for that answer. One must have a somewhat odd notion of how examiners go about their work if one would expect that examiners would scrutinize carefully the contents of pink booklets reserved for rough work on the offchance that some candidate might have disregarded both explicit instructions and basic common sense to the extent of including an answer to an exam question intended to be marked in a booklet reserved for rough work.

Similarly with those examination papers with rubrics which say something like . B"Answer questions from Section A and Section B in separate booklets". Because the first thing that the coordinating examiner will want to do, after collection of the scripts, will be to separate out the booklets so that the Section A booklets can go to the examiner for Section A and the Section B booklets can go to the examiner for Section B - especially in situations where the examiners may work in separate departments or separate buildings, with the result that they are unlikely to communicate with one another before the results are due.
