Is any scratch paper allowed for the DAT? If so, are amounts limited?

yes they give you a booklet. Mine was 2 8.5 x 11 pages folded in half. When you want new paper you have to turn in your old paper.

mine was yellow, so it wasn't seen through. I was hoping it was white because that would have helped me with the angle rankings.

can you actually put the paper up to the monitor if it is see through?

No. Nothing can be held up to the screen (as a matter of fact I was told not to touch the screen, period). I am sure the primary concern is the tracing of angles.

At my site, I was able to put things on the screen, however the paper isn't see through, and I doubt a white paper would allow see through either. So... the best is to plan for the worst, which is having paper that can't be seen through, and neither can you touch your screen.

Curious thought, at my site, I had a sweatshrit with me, and I need to have that around my waist the whole time, the proctor came in couple times to remind me of doing so. I wasn't cheating or anything, it was just out of habit.

Good luck with the PAT.
