Students taking law examinations at the University of Cambridge complain about the use of yellow exam papers and related equipment, according to reports. The concerns focus on what students describe as eye strain from the coloured paper, and on glare from computer screens used during the exam. Some students also raise practical issues, including the risk of paper cuts when handling the printed materials. The reports state that the students are using computers to write up answers while the exam papers are provided in yellow. However, the available information does not set out the university’s response or any formal findings about whether the paper colour or screen glare creates a safety or accessibility issue. The claims are presented as student feedback and complaints, rather than confirmed outcomes. The reports do not specify which exam sessions or the exact circumstances under which the yellow papers and screens are used, nor do they provide details on any prior accommodations or changes to exam materials. Overall, the dispute centres on comfort and usability during exams, as described by the students involved.
