Dear YK,
As a physics student I agree 100% that there are several questions that require pen and paper to solve. I find it, to be frank, quite ridiculous.
With regards
You are either lying, or you are an atrocious physics student. My bet is on the former.
Not one question of the theory test requires a pen and paper to solve. What is ridiculous is the fact that people are wondering if there is a pen and a sheet of paper available during a driving licence theory test.
Calculating the percentage of alcohol and/or the stopping distance is not rocket science and can be done by using two very simple formulas.
