Are you allowed to bring anything (pencil/paper/water bottle) into the exam room with you?

I thought I read somewhere they provided a small whiteboard & marker. If so, how big is this board, and I assume they give you an eraser for it...

Cheers.
 
When I went in the ONLY things I could bring in were two forms of ID, and my person, and that's it.

And yes, the whiteboard they refer to is an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of laminated paper that you use a dry erase marker and eraser on that they give you.

I have heard others talking about some centers that give you a paper and pencil, but I searched at every one in all of southern California and I couldn't find one. I'd suggest going to kinko's and laminating a few pieces of paper to practice. It's really not that bad.
 
The only materials you're allowed to take into the exam is YOU and the CLOTHES you're in (excluding your baseball cap, watch, etc.)!
Good luck👍

Yeah, they didn't even let me bring my wallet in or anything, but I guess that could be a way to cheat...somehow? They're really strict on the rules too - I went in wearing a watch, and about half way through the test it was bothering me, so I took it off and laid in next to the mouse. Apparently the lady noticed this in the camera that was watching me (EVERYONE has their own camera watching them from above), and she came in and told me I had to put my watch back on!
