    This! But seriously, what does this pencil do? I hate rubber pencils but I guess they all write the same, no? I get it, guys! J/K I'm struggling because my job has prevented me from signing docs in blue ink! I hate black! Maybe I can get away with those cool milky pens I used to doodle with in high school?? They were not specific. They just said no blue! LOL What do you guys like about the pencil though?

    They write a bit smoother and better than most pencils. They seem to be a favorite among LSAT takers. I tried everything from the Black Ticons which I found too scratchy when writing, to the Palomino Blackwing 602s which seemed a bit too soft. The Noricas to me are right in that goldilocks zone between hard and scratchy lead (Ticons) and buttery soft lead (602s).

    @"Alex Divine" I have a nearly full box of Ticonderogas. Too bad I didn't know about Staedlers before.

    For what it's worth, I don't think they make much of a difference. After all, we are taking a multiple choice test, filling in bubbles and maybe drawing logic games... The truth is when you are studying so hard for this test little things like pencils become nice perks. As sad as it sounds it makes me a bit more excited to have a cool pencil, lol. Makes thing a tad bit more enjoyable if you're into that sort of thing. But don't beat yourself up over not having them.
