Actually, I'm surprised wide got 2 votes.

Wide.

My hand writing is so very, very bad that I need the extra room of wide rule.

wide pisses me off. Back in high school, before computers were still very expensive, teachers gave out essays by how many pages they had to be. Back then, i opted for wide ruled cause it was writing less because of the WIDE rule. hahahah.

these days, when i take notes for college, it's college rule all the way.

Another engineering, though I found wide to be much better for mathematially intense subjects, A fairly complexe partial differential equaiton can be written better on a single line of wide ruled, it is to much for a single line of college ruled.

I often just used a blank page. I recall, back in the days of fanfold paper, of using 4 pages, landscape, to write out some problems in numerical analysis. (try deriving the 4th order Runga Kutta equations.)
