I'm just wondering if we are allowed to wear jackets in the Exam Hall venue ?
in some exam venues I was allowed, and in others I wasn't....

I've been wondering about this myself, in my first exam this year we were all told to leave our jackets at the front of the room, but since then not a word has been said about hanging them on the backs of chairs.

Some people had proper coats on themselves the other day in the RDS. Some had light jackets on the back of their chairs, but in all fairness they only had t-shirts on underneath.

I wore my giant hoodie in, but stuck it on the back of my chair before the exam started because I didn't know how warm the hall was. Nobody (in my area anyways) was told to bring unnecessary coats/hoodies out.

I did see lots of invigilators peeking into the pockets of the coats/hoodies as they passed, but that's to be expected
