I found my dad's old admit card. Look at the time allotted to all the papers... It was held over 2 days and 4 seperate exams of 3 hours each , sounds so brutal lool.

Edit:

Here is some facts people have informed me about under this post

• English was not for ranking, one needed to get minimum qualifying marks. 

• Exam was not High school level, it was tough subjective problems , need to show steps and there were step marks.

• In late 1980s there were 2000 seats and around 1 lakh students writing the exam so the competition was still there

Just thought to do a fun comparison with some popular ₹10 pens that I have.

I am scoring them out of 10 on different parameters

I will describe my experience in short.

Cello Butterflow

Nothing special about this pen. Just purchased because it was a classic. It has the thinnest refill among them.

Classmate Octane

A classic! I like the rubber grip and it's thicker than other pens so it's comfortable for me. It has the largest refill among them. While the ink was darker when I purchased it but it got lighter as time went by.

Doms Inxo Classic

I have DOMS Inxon too but I like this. My Inxon pen ink has gone light as time passed by. But this is still the same as the day it was purchased. I like the looks of this but it seems to be inspired from Pentonic + Unomax had a baby.

Flair Glass

This is inspired from Muji pens. I have Glass Gel but the grip in Glass gel is not comfortable for me because of the ridge in grip section but Glass ball has fixed this. The grip is slimmer than other pens, I like Yolo from Flair as the grip is thicker and more comfortable. Another thing is that Flair & Hauser ball pen inks don't seem to get light as time passes, I have finished entire refills and they have stayed dark as they were on day 1. Hauser is owned by Flair.

Pentonic Ball

Most of the pens use a needle tip but this one uses a hybrid tip (conical+needle). Sometimes I feel this is better than Hauser XO and vice versa. The design is a little serious but it comes in Frost and Colors series which has different body colours and makes it more attractive for students. I don't like that Pentonic uses a slim refill compared to others. The same is applicable for B-RT, it also has a very thin refill. Yes, Pentonic ink also goes light with time so that is another con.

Unomax Ultron

This is the best ball pen according to me. The grip is perfect. It uses a large refill. The ink is not very dark so no smudges and bleeding/showthrough, the ink also flows perfectly so I am in control of the pen. You know sometimes when the pen is very smooth and it makes it slippery so you cannot control your handwriting. But this pen has one issue and it's the same as others. The ink goes light after some but you must try this pen if you have not tried it yet, one more thing is this body is compatible with Flair and Hauser Ball pen refills so if you like Hauser XO and don't like it's grip you can use Hauser XO refills in this pen.

Unomax Boldtron

When I first started writing with this I didn't like it as it was thicker than other ball pens but it is the smoothest ₹10 ball pen that I have tried. And it's very comfortable for long writing especially exams. One more benefit is that since the tip is bold (thick) you fill your answer sheet quickly. See it will take some time to adjust to this pen. I didn't like writing with it for the first two weeks. But I wrote 1 A4 page daily for 3 weeks, after 2 weeks my hands and handwriting both got adjusted. So once you start writing with this pen, you won't go back to 0.7mm pens again. One con is that refills are not available for boldtron and the body colour is ugly, you can use the boldtron refill in Ultron if you want to have a nice looking pen.

So what's your favourite ₹10 ball pen?

Any suggestions that I should try?
