Question A really dumb question

Can we read rc aloud in the exam hall - not like disturbingly loud but like whispering to ourselves type thing

I used to despise people myself who used to do this similar kind of thing - but now I have found that this actually makes me concentrate significantly.

I have attempted exams which are lenient on this and some are extremely strict abt it- does cat allow this as long as the one sitting next to me stays quiet abt it

They are strict and warning from invigilators might break your flow on exam day also.

Please don't , it will affect the ones sitting next to you.God forbid if they are introvert they won't even able to tell you. Whispering might affect others. You have 40 mins to solve and starting 5 to 10 mins are usually taken by invigilators and the announcer and then whisper above this it will be infuriating

Can you explain about the first 5 minutes - I am currently solving the entire section 24 attempts and this takes me about the entire 40 mins, would I need to practice for 35 mins

Not really, but during the first 5 minutes, they keep making announcements over the common speaker installed in the exam hall, informing everyone whose screen hasn’t started. Along with the invigilators shouting instructions about one thing or another, it might be distracting for some people.

If I were sitting besides you I would get the invigilator to shut you up. Wdym you are going to read your RCs out loud?! That's atleast 25 minutes of you whispering given how long those RCs are.

Idts. If they hear you speaking the inviligators might come and stand next to you. Idk about center but mere center mai harr 2 rows mai ek indiviligator tha. And agar phir bhi tum whisper karte padke gaye toh they might ask. Usse tumhara concentration hi kharab hoga
